Objects of Desire
Objects Capri Dolce Vita, Assouline
£85
Summer holidays incoming: live your best life vicariously or throw this into your suitcase, a delicious exploration of the storied Mediterranean island of Capri, a destination with a history dating back to the Roman Empire, and cherished by everyone from from physician Axel Munthe, who recommended its clean air to his patients as a cure for bronchitis; to film director Jean-Luc Godard as the setting for his 1963 film Contempt; to literary icons, celebrities, poets, and the jet set. A celebration of a place that might be close to paradise on earth.
