GRANTA 85: HIDDEN HISTORIES
Repressed personal experiences, neglected battles, forgotten civilizations: an issue of Granta that excavates the unfairly buried event, the secret life, the overlooked war. With: Diana Athill on her lost baby, Giles Foden on Africa's naval war, Jennie Erdal on her career as a ghost, Brian Cathcart on the very different life of another Brian Cathcart, Donovan Wylie's photographs of a northern Irish past, Geoffrey Beattie on his Protestant childhood, Jackie Kay on finding her father, plus new fiction by Anne Enright.
