Description

What are the ethics of writing about a place you may visit only briefly and view with the eyes of an outsider? With Granta's long tradition of travel writing in mind, we ask some of the world's best writers: is travel writing dead in 2016? Plus: Will Atkins investigates a killing across the US-Mexico border Xan Rice goes back to school in South Africa Edna O'Brien: 'Chekhov's Ladies' David Flusfeder visits record factories in Detroit and California All the way up London's Holloway Road with Tim Adams Laura Vapynar: 'Vladimir in Love'

Another solid issue. My favorites were the bits on 'The Wall' (Between Great Fires), Vinyl Road Trip, Well Done 3777 (on admission to Chinese Univ Film School), Xan Rice (S Africa school), and Amit Chaudhuri in old Bombay.
