I do love
reading interesting articles on foreign media, mostly related with financial
markets and global economy. Though no need to follow new agenda if you are a
person lives in Turkey, sometimes I want to be out of all those boring and stable topics.
Today, New York Times introduces a French magazine to me, The Parisianer, in an
article of art section of the newspaper. The headline calls my attention,
simply, because of containing Paris. In fact, it sounds tempting not just telling about Paris, also saying an interesting ‘if so’ pattern, If The New Yorker Were Set In Paris. You can find more about both
the writer’s idea and detailed content about The Parisianer in the article.
I am fully impressed
by examples of The Parisianer’s covers: critical, smart, well pictured and narrator.
After a quick search of other cover pictures I can find on internet, briefly, I
can say that most of them tell life of a simple Parisian. Well, it is hard to
say which one is the real Parisian’s life, ones who live under super big brands’
lights or one who are homeless near subway stations. To the point, The
Parisianer successfully criticizes all of incompatibility of lives, city
lights, Tour Eiffel’s worldwide fame, subways, bohemian life types and much
more. As much as I can, I tried to gather all of the best cover pictures of the
newspaper. Here you will find them. Soon, need to learn more about The
Parisianer, maybe try to find a few issue if I can in Istanbul.
