Publisher and Editor Sigrid Rausing gives an insight into chairing the judges panel for Granta's widely-discussed, once-in-a-decade list of new writing talent, which has previously helped establish the likes of Ian McEwan, Zadie Smith and Salman Rushdie.

Alex Clark and Max Liu interrogate what the purpose of the list serves at a time when 'Young', 'British' and 'Novelist' are increasingly slippery terms, as well as giving some of their recommendations.

And Sophie Macintosh, one of the most widely praised writers included on it, talks about her new novel Cursed Bread.
