Alhaus – Issue 4

 In this issue, we delve into the art of storytelling in all its forms—whether those stories are conveyed through the spoken or written word; expressed in engaging verse; or told via hooky melodies, enigmatic paintings or quirky strokes of ink.

In our quest for unique narratives, we also spanned the globe: from the stylish offices of Vogue China to a vineyard in Austria; from cafés in the Côte d’Azur to the bright lights of the Las Vegas Strip; from a street food stall in Singapore to fine dining at 30,000 feet. Join us on our journey, and be transported by our stories.

Amour – How the french talk about Love

Stefania Rousselle

A timeless, universal meditation on the meaning of love, based on the author's travels through France, accompanied by stunning full-colour photographs

'Will restore your faith in the world' New York Post 

Award-winning journalist and documentary maker Stefania Rousselle had stopped believing in love. She had covered a series of bleak assignments, from terrorist attacks to the rise of the far right. Her relationship had fallen apart. Her faith in humanity was shaken. She decided to set out alone on a road trip across France, sleeping in strangers' homes, asking ordinary men and women the one question everyone wants to know the answer to: What is love? 

From a baker in Normandy to a shepherd in the Pyrénées, from a gay couple estranged from their families to a widow who found love again at 70, Amour is a treasure trove of poignant and profound stories about love, accompanied by beautiful photographs.
