Weather - talking, embedding in literature - in the Anglosaxon world.

Nico Stehr pointed me to this article in the New Yorker

http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/11/23/writers-in-the-storm.

The piece is worth a read, for the cultural history of the role of weather and climate, but also as a demonstration of the impressive self-confidence of some in the anglo-saxon speaking world. We need to lead.
