A Mini-Episode to Wish You Holiday Cheer and a Happy New Year

The world's friendliest nutcracker collection! The Icelandic book party called Jólabókaflóðið! Lasagna! Then we share one of our favorite poems, a celebration of the winter solstice by British poet Sarah Cooper.

Om Podcasten

One lifetime is too short to visit everywhere and meet everyone. That‘s why we love books with a strong sense of place — they let us travel the world in our imagination. In each episode of our Strong Sense of Place podcast, we explore one destination and talk about what makes that place different from everywhere else. Then we recommend five books that took us to that place on the page. Every other week, we share The Library of Lost Time, a mini-pod that features two new books and our Distraction of the Week. We‘re on a trip around the globe, one great read at a time. Please join us!
