Who owns winter: the sun, Jesus, the Maccabees, the Unconquered Sun, or the people lighting dumplings and pomegranates at midnight? 🌟 In this slightly sparkly tour of Yule, Saturnalia, Christmas, Hanukkah, Yalda, Dongzhi, Diwali, Kwanzaa and more, we follow humanity’s favorite coping strategy for long nights: candles, feasts, resistance, and ridiculous amounts of hope.
