Publisher's Synopsis
Four years after 'Mothers', Granta 104 sets its sights on Fathers. Look out for Hisham Matar on his father, who was kidnapped while living in Egypt and imprisoned by Muammar al-Gaddafi in Libya; Helen Epstein on 'fatherhood' within the prisons of San Francisco; a dictator who has styled himself as the Father of the Nation; Rawi Hage on Beirut, as seen through his father's eyes; becoming a father again in middle age and Junot Dï+½az on Latin American 'Big Men'. Plus: writers, including Margaret Atwood and Ali Smith, on their favourite pictures of their fathers.
