It's almost ready to hit the shelves, and reFRESH 52 is already shaping up to be one of our best ever issues. Jo and Thore, the stars of German hit soap opera Verbotene Liebe, have done an exclusive photo shoot for us. Hot on the heels of our interview with the pair, there's a preview of the article on the Gays of Daytime blog. We've also spoken to the American actor, model and all-round rising star Travis Kraft.
Top radio presenter Larry Flick gives us his view from across the Atlantic, and the Diary gives you our round-up of what's hot in culture and the arts. We've taken a closer look at Hollywood hellcat Miriam Hopkins, the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Copenhagen and the hidden gem of the Greenwich Fan Museum. Find out how the pioneering gay mathematician Alan Turing was hounded into suicide, despite saving thousands of lives in World War II, and have a look around Sir Hugh Walpole's Lake District in the first of our Literary Trails around Britain.
We also preview Tate Britain's major retrospective of Francis Bacon - probably the most important figurative painter of the 20th Century - and Glasgay's celebration of the life and work of Tennessee Williams, the playwright and screenwriter who defined the 1950s. New photography by Brian Finke focuses on the hidden life of the air hostess, while the current documentary Man On Wire gives us a springboard into the curious world of tightrope walking.
As well as our regular round-up of property, books and interiors, our Style Guide brings you the best in men's fragrances and hot new ideas for lighting the home and garden. Our travel section for this issue is the first of a new series dedicated to Switzerland, bringing you the best of culture and shopping in this Alpine gem.
Enjoy!
