Esquire Singapore Magazine - October 2020

In this issue

After winning three Media Publishing Association awards in 2013 and 11 in 2014, Esquire continues to be regarded as a beacon of excellent journalism in Asia with 15 wins in 2015. We have no idea where we kept the awards, though. Founded in September 2012, the local edition is produced by a crop of respectable writers, photographers, illustrators and collaborators. Known for its powerful storytelling and ground-breaking photography, delivered in its signature wit, Esquire continues to steward men to their best in Singapore and beyond. The birth of Esquire dates back as far as 1933 in the States and since then, the title is known for pushing boundaries with literary giants such as Ernest Hemingway, F Scott Fitzgerald and Norman Mailer finding their voice with the magazine.

Underneath A Sky Of Red

“Peace is the wool pulled over our eyes so we can all work towards our ideals of prosperity and progress. The truth is there has always been war, even during times of prosperity and progress. There has always been war… (We) just refuse to look because then we feel guilty about buying our Nike shoes and Ikea sofas while children lose their lives to mines and artillery fire. I thank the body for giving me the Prize, but the fact that I won says everything: these days, taking my finger off the nuclear button if only for a week, can be considered an act of peace. Years down the road, it will be someone else’s finger, but the same damned button. There can be no peace until we remove the button until we dismantle the triggers until we melt down the swords. Until we agree collectively that our species has no need for bullets and bombs.” —President Oleg Kerzhakov of Russia Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, 15th October 2033
