This issue of Granta tells the story of chaotic hierarchies, zero-sum games of competition alternating with tenderness, lifelong relationships that nevertheless can sometimes break. Psychoanalysis famously privileges the vertical relationship between a child (the patient) and their parents over the seemingly equal and unproblematic horizontal connections between siblings.

Saskia Vogel ), Emma Cline, Omer Friedlander, Charlie Gilmour, Lauren Groff, Will Harris, Lauren John Joseph, Viktoria Lloyd-Barlow, Jamal Mahjoub, Andrew Miller, John Niven, Vanessa Onwuemezi, Karolina Ramqvist (Tr. Caroline Waight ), Taiye Selasi, Angelique Stevens .
