A paper book edited by Jessica Duffin Wolfe and Candice F. Chung, Tasting Menu: Choice Selections from the First Two Years, is a print anthology of some of the TRB’s best work.
Ingredients: books, apps, masks, Darwin, teenage girls, Tasmania, prisons, an Almanac, Margaret Atwood, tiny ship models, “1 very fresh cow’s femur,” more books, Nairobi, Soba noodles, the 401, the CNE, Alice (from Wonderland), and more deliciousness in essay- and poem-form than most people can handle in a single meal.
