      <title>Cocteau makes his mark on Menton again</title>

Menton, though Italian for many centuries, has belonged to France since 1860, and now has the best of both worlds. ]]></description>

      <title>Nick Danziger: home and away</title>
      <description><![CDATA[When asked recently by a woman in a workshop he was teaching how he would describe himself, the multi-talented photographer-painter-writer-filmmaker Nick Danziger admits that he didn't have an answer. "The woman replied that she thought I was a storyteller, and I think she's right: I'm trying to tell stories more than carry out a humanitarian mission. People think of me as a war photographer but I'm not actually that interested in war. What I'm interested in more is how people live. How they get by on a daily basis." ]]></description>
