SUNDAY MAGAZINE: 9 OCTOBER, 2016

Welcome to our new weekly Sunday Magazine. Each Sunday, we’ll bring you selected works from around the world, from travel poetry to fiction to photography. This week, we begin with our new series, Eaten, which pairs travel with gastronomy, in an essay by South African writer Ishay Govender-Ympa.

Eaten

Blue cheese blues
Ishay Govender-Ypma

Once the blue cheese touched my tongue, so sharp, with the depth of umami greater than my grandmother’s spicy rassam, the fiery, savoury South Indian tamarind and pepper soup, I had to draw deeply for air.

Nonfiction

Mapping Firenze
Mara Gorman

Poetry

Other skins
Shabana Coelho

Photo Gallery

I am a place
Henry Lee

I do not simply photograph the places I go; I am a “place” in motion beyond permeable borders and geographical boundaries.
