In this issue Trouble in Paradise: Escape from reality, what holidaymakers don't know about their destinations, journalists from around the world dig under the gloss of tourism brochures to expose threats and dangers to freedom of expression. We report from the Maldives, Mexico, Malta, Bali, Hawaii and Italy, about what those guidebooks don't tell you. Authors Ian Rankin and Victoria Hislop on writing about the good, bad and the ugly. Vietnam's Lady Gaga talks about having her house raided, Malaysia's hard rockers talk about how their lyrics reveal what living in the country is really like and acclaimed music journalist Jon Savage on why the establishment always wants to ban new music.
