The Holiday Cycle by Joseph Mills is more than a poetry collection that considers our relationship with the holidays and with time, it reminds us how holidays are like memory markers, taking us back in time each time a holiday rolls around. Just as Joseph Mills used wine in Angels, Thieves, and Winemakers to show us how we hope to age, how we never open a bottle of wine thinking "this is a bad idea," and how the mere act of sharing wine with another person feeds our soul, The Holiday Cycle reminds us to pause, reflect, and regret some of life's gatherings with family and friends.
