MONOCLE - ISSUE 178 - November 2024

Itching for bigger ideas, wiser words, better leaders? Monocle’s new issue does the trick: flick open our pages for a refreshing sojourn to Paris’s bookshops, an insight into Johannesburg’s hard-nosed urbanism and a sit-down with the creative director who turned Bally’s fortunes around. Plus: step into the Catalan neighbourhood on the up, hear from screenwriters, diplomats and chef-patrons on the meaning of home, and how the Finns are preparing for uncertain times ahead. There’s colour, drama and a commitment to a sharper future – Monocle’s November issue is here.
