It’s been a year in the making but now our first book is arriving at the best bookstores around the world. *The Monocle Guide to Better Living* is produced by Germany’s premier publisher Gestalten and our new film tells the story of how we teamed up and also why we think the time is right for this modest manifesto about improving everything from cities to the food on our tables. *Available to buy online now at [The Monocle Shop](https://monocle.com/shop/books/books/the-monocle-guide-to-better-living/).*
