August: when the most relaxing season of the year achieves its deepest state of calm; when the leaves on the trees ripen to their richest greens; and when we at Daily Nutmeg turn our gaze to stories we didn’t write.
Starting next week, it’s our third annual Summer Reading Month, highlighting intriguing authors and works with strong local ties. In addition to our usual Monday to-dos, each Tuesday we’ll profile a writer, then excerpt relevant works the rest of the week.
Please enjoy, and as always, feel free to let us know what you think—
