Holiday #395 : Zurich 

‘It is written in English, but its heart is French’

The international travel and style review that lets us imagine the holidays of our dreams. Relaunched by Paris-based creative director Franck Durand in 2014 after a 37-year hiatus, Holiday is a modern classic built on its fifties heyday. Recently marking 10 years since the magazine's relaunch, this issue is an ode to Zurich. 

Adopted Zürcher and Monocle editorial director Tyler Brûlé opens the issue, speaking to Dan Thawley about his relationship to the city (his imagination first captured by a seventies Swiss TV program about a Saint Bernard); Violane Epitalon offers a glossary of Dadaism featuring Littérature and Maintenant? magazines; century-old dining institution Kronenhalle opens its doors to François Halard;  a dip into photographer Walter Pfeiffer's archives; and new fiction from Avril Bénard all offer a snapshot of the somewhat typecast city.
