[James · Rating 4 out of 5]

An anthology of stories and poems about the winter season. As with any anthology, there are hits and misses, but overall it's a strong collection of writing and, though I wanted more poetry, there are a few stories that tug at the heart.

I took my time with this gem. A printing group in St Louis put together this great anthology. The meditations on the winter season reminded of many of the things I love about winter.
