Here we are again in our journey around the sun - at the #WinterSolstice (if you're in the Northern hemisphere). The #ShortestDay. #Yule. #Hanukkah. #MidwinterDay. Alban Arthan. Mummer's Day. Sol Invictus. It's a turning point in the #WheeloftheYear.

And now the light returns! 🙏🌞

There’s just nobody like Bernadette Mayer. How lucky we’ve all been. Spending the day (between cooking tasks) reading her.

Here’s an excerpt from Midwinter Day. (Photo by Lawrence Schwartzwald for NY Review of Books.)
