Tyler Brûlé: Swim & Sun: A Monocle Guide, Halbleinen

Klappentext

**The Monocle team dips its toe into the world of swimming, revealing 100 beautiful and inspiring places to take the plunge.**Swimming is excellent exercise of course, but it's so much more than that: it can be a transcendental experience, offering us space to reflect and to escape. It's an antidote to screens and all-encompassing technology. Perhaps it's the shedding of inhibitions that come with a dip, or could it be that getting somewhere under our own steam is an act that's health-giving, refreshing and life-affirming? Whatever it means to you, swimming - alone or with others, badly or brilliantly - is about being in the moment. This new book celebrates bathing in glorious full-colour photography, revealing the editors' chosen spots from inner-city architectural wonders to lakes, beach clubs and bagni. So whether you're looking to do laps in Italy, tread water in Australia, sink into the icy depths in Iceland - or perhaps just sit on the side and let others do the hard work - this guide includes a setting for everyone. Dive right in.
