This Depression-Era ‘Magic Cake’ Has a Secret...

March 4, 2022

Sylvia Plath baked her mother’s tomato soup cake on the day she wrote “Death & Co.” in 1962. This was hardly unusual for the poet, who churned out apple pies and hot milk cakes dripping in caramel at a rate sometimes described as fanatical. Despite her critique of gender roles, Plath was an avid home baker who once wrote that she would “study The Joy Of Cooking, reading it like a rare novel.” Since her death in 1963, Plath’s……

It was the second week of April 1994, and Félicité Niyitegeka saw the specter of genocide heading in her direction. Niyitegeka served as director of the Centre Saint-Pierre, a Catholic charity center in Gisenyi, a quiet lakeside town in western Rwanda that people often visited to escape their ordinary lives. She had served her community—both Hutu and Tutsi members—for decades, giving food, clothing, and money to those in need. But as Hutu militia bands swept toward Gisenyi with plans……

How to Connect With Nature Like a...

March 4, 2022

When Sicelo Mbatha was just seven years old, his life changed. Born on the edge of Africa’s oldest nature reserve, now Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park in northwestern South Africa, Mbatha had developed an intense love of all living things, from a shimmering fish he’d caught but thrown back because it was too beautiful to eat, to a massive umbrella thorn acacia he called the “queen of trees.” But nature, as we know, is not always benign. To walk the roughly 10-mile……
