Issue 21 of Granta brings together three markedly unmodern authors: Bruce Chatwin accompanies nomads of the Sahara and Australian Aborigines; Ryszard Kapuściński recounts his experiences in central Africa; and John Berger reflects on the narrator as a compassionate witness, in a collection devoted to the art of storytelling.

Aimed at the general public, especially readers of essays and contemporary literary fiction.
