The Stradivarius Tree

The gardener in the Jura Mountains whose work won't bear fruit until the 24th century, and other correspondents' despatches from Kenya, Afghanistan, Mexico and Mali.

Colour and insight from reporters around the world: the man who'll find you a violin tree in the Jura Mountains; what's going to happen to the man who tends the roses in the Afghan town of Lashkar Gah? Culture clash in Bamako -- how some of the refugees from Mali's north are overstaying their welcome. Why the Mexican president's warning about vigilantes won't be heeded in the mountainous south-west and ominous signs as birds of prey gather in the Kenyan capital, Nairobi.
