Thin Places | Jordan Kisner

Kisner displays an impressive range of narrative modes in [
Thin Places], bouncing nimbly between gravity (in her ethnography and her bird’s-eye philosophizing) and comic relief, which she peppers in just when our heads are starting to spin . . . In The Other City, about the months she spent reporting on death investigations and autopsies in Cleveland, Kisner writes: Leaving the office every night, I’d get breathless rushes of reality. That’s a lot like what these essays feel like, too: reminders of the weird in-between feeling of being alive.

The New York Times Book Review
With this collection, [Jordan Kisner] takes her place among the next generation of American Transcendentalists, and those true essayists for whom nothing human is too strange to write about . . . She’s one of the few contemporary writers who knows how to bridge spiritual and temporal worlds, but who’s also able to alter and expand our understanding of the metaphors we live by ....

With much of the globe closed to tourists because of the coronavirus pandemic, leisure travel has become frustratingly out of reach, at least for the immediate future.
No more weekend getaways to New York City to visit family and friends, or weeklong jaunts to Rome. No more bucket-list trips to Bolivia’s Madidi National Park, Peru’s Machu Picchu or Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest Gorilla Reserve.
If you’re anything like me, who used to spend any extra money I had on travel, this lack of access probably has you feeling perilously cut off not only from the people you love, but also from the wonders of the world in general. ....

On the last day of December (in normal times), people all over the world gather together to ring in the new year. Some people drink themselves silly. But in Japan, the festivities in many households and communities are a little more civilized.
Mochitsuki, or mochi (rice ball) pounding, is an annual Japanese
oshougatsu (New Year’s) tradition that usually begins on Dec. 30 and has a scrumptious payoff. First, the mochigome (mochi rice) is soaked overnight. Then it is steamed in a
seiro (a square, wooden basket) and pounded into a paste using an ....

Be gone, 2020! These 3 books could help you create a new you

Alexis Burling December 21, 2020Updated: December 23, 2020, 9:03 am
In the past 100 years, few things have had a more devastating effect on the world than the COVID-19 pandemic. Not only have more than a million people died in the past 10 months, but also countless others have lost their jobs, been separated from loved ones and been forced to weather a litany of seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
Given the circumstances, the idea of picking up a self-help book right now might seem a little absurd. But what better time to start improving ourselves than when we’re at our collective lowest?
In the spirit of reinvention and on the cusp of a new year, here are three books that aim to teach us to find strength in adversity and embrace our beauty within. ....

For the musically inclined, there’s the Debbie Allen-directed “Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square” on Netflix, and “Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey,” also on Netflix.
