"In Jude Stewart's witty, surprising, and jubilant romp through the
most undervalued of the senses, you will encounter some of most
rapturous descriptions of scent ever put on paper. But even more
than that, Revelations in Air is an expansive and large-hearted
consideration of friendship, memory, beauty, and the art of
appreciation."
—Adrienne Miller, author of In the Land of Men.
"Revelations in Air manages to feel both breezy and
substantial, exciting and informative—like an expertly guided tour
of scents." –Jessie Gaynor, Lit Hub Senior Editor
"Journalist Stewart (Patternalia) takes olfaction seriously in this
impassioned exploration of smell... What sets Stewart’s tour
apart is her intense descriptions—jasmine has “an extraordinary
sense of liftoff” that “rolls over you like a tidal wave,” and the
smell of truffles is “heterodox, suggesting its own
universe... packed with vibrant energy." —Publishers
Weekly
