Winter is the quietest and most mysterious season of the year, concealing not only the cold but also astonishing beauty. Bernd Brunner explores winter as a cultural, natural, and emotional phenomenon, weaving stories, scientific discoveries, traditions, and personal observations into his narrative. He explores the shapes of snowflakes and the languages of snowstorms, ancient rituals, the coziness of winter evenings, and the sudden fragility of ice.
This leisurely journey through the snow-covered landscapes of nature and human memory is a reminder of how much warmth can be found in the coldest of all seasons, and why, despite the cold, we yearn for winter again and again.
