But instead of moaning and wringing her hands, Julie actually went out and did something. And the essay in this month’s issue is her paean to bees, the strange, social, busy, mythic bee.” from Douglas Glover’s introduction to the January 2016 issue of Numéro Cinq, read more here: http://numerocinqmagazine.com/2015/12/26/the-queen-bee-issue-numero-cinqs-january-preview/
