''Granta'' Best of Young British Novelists

In 1983, ''Granta'' (issue #7) published a list of 20 young British novelists as names to watch out for in the future. Since then, the magazine has repeated its recognition of emerging writers in 1993 (issue #43), 2003 (issue #81) and 2013 (issue #123). In 1996 (issue #54), ''Granta'' published a similar list of promising young American novelists, which was repeated during 2007 (issue #97). In 2010 ''Granta'' issue #113 was devoted to the best young Spanish-language novelists. Many of the selections have been prescient. At least 12 of those identified have subsequently either won or been short-listed for major literary awards such as the
