Edition 315
Barack Obama or John McCain? Almost two years of campaigning culminate with the presidential election on 4 November. Alan Attwood and Jake Avila look at why the result will have ramifications for us all.
Also in this issue:
‘Raymond, Gordon and Me’: Australian author Morris Lurie tells a tale of ambition, disappointment and delicate psyches from the publishing world; Anthony Morris talks to Philippe Petit about wire-walking between New York’s Twin Towers; and in ‘Roving Eye’: Australian photographer Christina Simons explores Iceland’s barren and breathtaking beauty.
Our ‘Vendor Profile’ for this edition is David from Adelaide. We also have ‘Streetsheet’ contributions from John E from Brisbane, Craig from Melbourne and Sydney’s Trevor C, as well as a photo from The Big Issue Sydney’s fundraiser on 28 September.
