The winter issue of Granta explores how ideas about winning and competition suffuse modern society. We return to the magazine’s tradition of sports writing. Articles include Nico Walker on the rise and fall of American football – from Jim Thorpe to Deion Sanders; Clare Bucknell on the history of tennis; and Declan Ryan’s report from a boxing match between British heavyweights Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois. Fiction includes very short stories from Caryl Churchill and Kathryn Scanlan; two stories set in hospitals by Benjamin Nugent and K Patrick; Mircea Cartarescu on an archipelago infested with angels, and Edward Salem on nights out in the West Bank.
