Winterlust : finding beauty in the fiercest season / Bernd Brunner ; translated by Mary Catherine Lawler ; foreword by Mark Kurlansky. by Brunner, Bernd, 1964- Greystone Books, 2019. Call #: 508.2 B897w Subjects Winter.   Seasons. ISBN:  9781771643528 (hc.) Uniform title:  Als die Winter noch Winter waren. English Description:  xiii, 262 p. : col. ill.; 20 cm. Notes:  "Originally published in Germany by Verlag Galiani Berlin as Als die winter noch winter waren: geschichte einer jahreszeit"--T. p. verso. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 247-252) and index. Summary:  "In Winterlust, a farmer painstakingly photographs five thousand snowflakes, each one dramatically different from the next. Indigenous peoples thrive on frozen terrain, where famous explorers perish. Icicles reach deep underwater, then explode. Rooms warmed by crackling fires fill with scents of cinnamon, cloves, and pine. Skis carve into powdery slopes, and iceboats traverse glacial lakes. This lovingly illustrated meditation on winter entwines the spectacular with the everyday, expertly capturing the essence of a beloved yet dangerous season, which is all the more precious in an era of climate change." -provided by publisher.
