September signifies a new start for many and for some this could mean anew job. In our cover report Natasha Young interviews four foreign Barcelona residents who have found work here using a combination of contacts, entrepreneurial spirit and luck. However, as Peta Miller discovers in her piece ‘Untold Stories’ the economic problems of Spain have forced many illegal immigrants to leave as work dries up. She speaks to four women about their experiences here. Nicola Thornton interviews Zosen, a rising street artist, whilst Tara Stevens welcomes a new addition to the Asian food scene. After the cultural void of August, our extended ON section is packed to the brim with festivals, concerts and exhibitions. Natasha Young invites us out of town to Tàrrega where the annual street-theatre festival is in full swing and Casa Asia pulls out all the stops for their celebration.
