Product Description
This annual review aims to support writers around the world who are threatened with censorship, persecution or oppression. In each volume contemporary writing sits alongside writing from internationally acknowledged authors and contains a blend of non-fiction and fiction and should appeal to the readers of "Granta" and those interested in the work of Index on Censorship and Amnesty International. "Autodafe" literary magazine presents a range of material, from writers all over the world, both famous and less famous. It offers a useful and at times disturbing report on the state of literary freedom at the beginning of the 21st century. Contributors include Russell Banks, Breyten Breytenbach, Vincenzo Consolo, Bei Dao, Juan Goytisolo, Christian Salmon, Jose Saramago, and Wole Soyinka.
