Christine Gelineau’s memoir Almanac (SUNY Press, excelsior editions, 2025) is an elegy for self & planet shaped with vignettes that are personal, political & poetic. These lyrical stories are at their heart about how we tell & who does the telling.🍃🌻🍂❄️ @sunypress.bsky.social @cmgelineau.bsky.social
