Description
Over the course of the last five years, more and more people have realized that the dominant voice in American fiction is altogether different from what it was. Three years ago, Granta devoted an issue to this new voice, entitled 'Dirty Realism', and published in it the work of eight authors, whose stories, - spare, unillusioned, but compassionate - invoked, with a curious coherence of style, the belly-side of American life: trailers parks, roadside cafes and small mid-western towns. In 'More Dirt' Granta offers fiction not only from many of the contributors to 'Dirty Realism', but also from a number of younger writers - including some who are not widely known... yet.
