Set in a world called Quill, where art and creativity are banned, the main character Alex becomes an Unwanted for drawing in the dirt with a stick. He is then sent to be eliminated, leaving his twin brother Aaron, a Wanted, behind. Instead of being eliminated, Alex is saved by Mr. Today, a magician who has been saving all the Unwanteds. He is then taken to the land of Artime where he learns how to turn his artistic abilities into magic. Can Alex save his brother, or will Aaron expose Artime and cause a full blown magical war between the two places?

One day in September, a decade ago, all eyes were turned towards New York. Where are we looking now? Through fiction, reportage, memoir, poetry and photography, Granta 116: 10 Years Later looks at how an event like 9/11 reverberates, with stories from Tunisia to Toronto. As part of an event series that spans the nation, author Dana Goodyear, Granta 116 contributor Adam Johnson, author Steve Erickson, and Los Angeles Times book critic David Ulin will explore this theme with readings and conversation.
