‘The Life of Things’ 

It’s MacGuffin's 10th issue, from 2021.

Featuring bottles galore, notable stories include ‘a parade of down-market perfumes, messages squeezed into bottles, recipes for the perfect Molotov cocktail, the curated contents of celebrity fridges, the curious colours of centuries-old domestic bottles, the racism rife in the wine business, the salvation sought at AA sessions.’

On the Journal:
‘The magazine isn’t interested in things that are iconic, but rather in the mysterious, unexpected things that set a story in motion’.
Read a brief sample text from this issue—Liv Siddall on the meanings of the Aesop bottle.
