Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

John Grisham's entire 23-title catalog is now available in e-book form, announced publisher Knopf Doubleday on March 16. The internationally best-selling author had previously expressed uncertainty about going digital, citing concern for both publishers and bookstores.

On Grisham's website, links now guide readers to a choice of online sites offering e-books of the author's works, which include A Time to Kill, The Firm, and The Pelican Brief, as well as new short story collection Ford Country.

In an interview on the US TV program Today in fall 2009, Grisham had expressed concern about the direction of e-reading. "Five years from now, how many of us are going to be reading books on Kindles, Sony Readers, these beautiful gadgets and devices that are going to get better and better and cheaper and cheaper. If half of us are going to be doing it, then you're going to wipe out tons of bookstores and publishers... ."

Grisham's books are currently available electronically to residents of the US and Canada; availability of the titles internationally and in translation has yet to be announced.

Knopf Doubleday also annonced that Grisham's next thriller is due out in October.
