Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

byKatherine May

Katherine May uses Wintering to investigate the Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times through a carefully framed biographical portrait. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the connected fields of biography & autobiography and body, mind, & spirit. Throughout, the author balances an accessible narrative with the complexity needed to understand motives, constraints, and disputed interpretations. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
