“My nature journal is scratch paper for my conversations with nature,” Melinda Nakagawa told me, as if this were the most ordinary thing in the world. Not a leather-bound keepsake, not a portfolio of botanical prints—scratch paper.

The Spirit of Absinthe

Every era seems to produce a drink that’s more than a drink, an object of myth, a mirror for its age. For the fin de siècle (end of the 19th century), that was absinthe, my favorite spirit! This infamous green elixir was hisotrically beloved by poets and painters, feared by

The Debt of the Dead

July 7, 2026
··
We often treat our family history like a dusty museum exhibit. We look at the faded photographs of ancestors and see strangers, a convenient fiction that allows us to believe we are self-made. In reality, we are walking archives. We are the biological holding cells for every unsaid grief and
