Thirst for Winter. Snow and Ice in Culture and Art
Winter is the quietest and most mysterious season of the year, in which not only coldness is hidden, but also amazing beauty. Bernd Brunner explores winter as a cultural, natural, and emotional phenomenon, weaving into the narrative stories, scientific discoveries,...
traditions, and personal observations. He talks about the shape of snowflakes and the languages of blizzards, ancient rituals, the coziness of winter evenings, and the sudden fragility of ice.
This unhurried journey through the snowy landscapes of nature and human memory is a reminder of how much warmth can be in the coldest of all seasons and why, despite the cold, we long for winter again and again.
