Katrina Kenison on Comfort Books - A Way to Garden with Margaret Roach - November 28, 2020

You've heard of comfort food and oh boy, have we all been hungry for that non-stop this crazy year. But how about comfort books—whether to keep yourself company as winter takes hold or to consider for gifting? That's today's topic with my writerly friend, Katrina Kenison, to help curate a collection for various tastes.

You may know Katrina Kenison as author of several books, including “The Gift of an Ordinary Day,” and “Magical Journey” and “Moments of Seeing.” She's a former literary editor at Houghton Mifflin, where she was series editor for “The Best American Short Stories” for 16 years and co-edited, with John Updike, “The Best American Short Stories of the Century.” Katrina's also a yoga teacher and an increasingly keen gardener in her own New Hampshire backyard.
