All month we’re celebrating the 40th anniversary of Granta Magazine and on the podcast this week we’ve got our programme director Peggy Hughes chatting with Ros Porter, Deputy Editor of the magazine. They discuss the history and origins of Granta and how literary magazines fit into the modern literature ecology.
Hosted by Simon Jones, writer and Digital Marketing Manager at the National Centre for Writing.
