This charming book reflects on the year's seasons, intertwining themes of smoking with seasonal observations and musings. Its light-hearted tone captures the lifestyle and sentiments of smokers at that time, celebrating the small pleasures found in smoking and nature. Each poem corresponds to a month of the year, presenting vivid imagery and clever wordplay.
