I really enjoyed this issue, the Ukrainian/Russian ones really hit home for me (literally) (that’s a bad joke)

A magnificent collection highlighting not only problems but also thinking about solutions and sometimes just processing events.

Like every issue of The Nib, it's a perfect way to spend half a day just sinking into its theme. What was striking was how many stories of how many places could be pulled from "Cities" as a topic, with time-capsule meditations on city as warzone flowing alongisde long-pandemic lockdowns to intimate portrayal of finding privacy in public. Cannot recommend it enough.

Illuminating.

The Cities issue is a good one though as usual occasionally pretty tough material to process. I really do love The Nib though.
