For The Influence Issue, Kinfolk is exploring the powerful currents that shape our world and sway our decisions: power, money, politics—and other people. We meet Anna Sorokin, who, under her alias, Anna Delvey, manipulated a remarkable sum of money out of Manhattan’s elite. We also catch up with Kaitlin Phillips, the indie publicist whose job is to manufacture influence for her creative clients, and speak to fashion model Dennis Okwera, who, having escaped the brutality of the Lord’s Resistance Army in Uganda as a child, has since returned to spearhead a philanthropic foundation to uplift his community. Elsewhere, we discuss the upcoming presidential election with Waleed Shahid, a senior political strategist behind campaigns for Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and treat Karl Lagerfeld’s beloved cat, muse and heiress Choupette to a stylish summer vacation. The rest of the issue returns to classic Kinfolk coverage, including interviews with influential chef Alison Roman, the French rabbi Delphine Horvilleur, opera singer Jeanine de Bique and photographer Sven Marquardt (who happens to be a doorman at Berlin’s notorious Berghain).

In Issue Forty-Nine, we set out to explore Scandinavia—but not as an exoticized lifestyle paragon. Instead, we feature a cast of cultural leaders who draw their creative strength from the darker side of the region. We meet pop sensation Tove Lo, who writes searingly honest songs about life’s ugly truths. We speak with famed Swedish painter Karin Mamma Andersson about why she’s drawn to darkness in art. And we catch provocative filmmaker Ruben O¨stlund (Triangle of Sadness) after he’s presided over the jury at the Cannes Film Festival.

Dive into the deep unknown with Kinfolk’s Water Issue. Featuring underwater fashion, summery stories and profiles of people who’ve built their lives around the water, Issue Forty-Eight is an invocation to readers to protect the planet’s most precious resource by rejoicing in its beauty.

Issue Twenty-Five  The fall issue of Kinfolk explores one of life’s simplest pleasures: sharing a meal. The act of eating together––whether at a well-appointed table or in the simple breaking of bread––is an essential element of a well-lived life. As MFK Fisher famously wrote, sharing a meal can be more intimate than sharing a bed.  In this issue, we examine the role of food in forming and sustaining relationships, its place in art and political history, and its significance to the arbiters contemporary culture. We visit a breadmaker in her Brooklyn studio, test a curated selection of recipes by a celebrated chef, thumb the pages of Dali’s surrealist cookbook and revisit MFK Fisher’s seminal writing on the joy of simple meals.

The Imperfect Issue: What is perfection, anyway? The Fall 2014 issue of Kinfolk explores the beauty of imperfection across food, people, ideas and more, showcasing the narratives these notions encompass. Nothing is perfect and it's often the most highly flawed things that give life its charm. So-called flaws should be embraced, diversity should be revered and eccentricity encouraged. The Imperfect Issue puts things society might deem rough around the edges under a microscope to explore their true character. Whether it's mismatched eyes, patched-up clothing or a broken plate, such unusual features often reveal lives lived to the fullest and rich with stories.
