MZIN NEWS: THE HAPPY READER #5 (UK) — BOOKISH QUARTERLY (UK)

THE HAPPY READER is a unique magazine about reading for anyone who wishes to stay inspired, informed and entertained. With beautiful typography, the magazine is a design object which celebrates the pure pleasure of reading and the calming luxury of being offline.
Each issue is split into two halves. The first half is an in-depth interview with a book fanatic and the second half gets under the skin of one classic work of literature.
For the actor ETHAN HAWKE, literature has always been both an inspiration and a motif. In our special interview, also taking in music, fame and family, the Brooklyn-based father of four reveals the books that have made him who he is.
Meanwhile in Sweden, THE SAGA OF GÖSTA BERLING by the Nobel Laureate SELMA LAGERLÖFhas for over a century held a special place in the national psyche as well as abroad. In this issue, her wicked novel sends us off on an expedition through Swedish life, nature, food and much more.
