RE | Issue 17 | 2020
This is issue 17 of RE:, a magazine for everyone in Norton Rose Fulbright around the world and for our friends, among them our clients and alumni. In this issue, the first to appear without paper or ink, we are overtaken by the pandemic—almost lost for words. What has happened to our world? From our lockdown, we sent out messages to our writers and they rallied and wrote essays that capture this moment in time—in a whitewashed Andalusian village by the sea, in the empty city streets of Milan, in the high Sierra mountains and the big Australian sky and across the mountains and rivers of China; in losses mourned and loved ones held close even though apart. In stolen time. One day, our essays will be printed. But for now, there is more to offer you. In amongst these pages you will also find ginger, kale and blueberries; a playlist from Mr Misri in Vancouver; the books that mark Alison Deitz’s life in Sydney; a careful look at a bicycle; an astonishing photo essay by Manuel Cosentino; and the birth of Raphael in the small London home of Alexandra Howe.
The next issue will appear at the end of 2020. See you then.
