Prose and Cons was the first column to be introduced here at Zimmer, previously known as Book of the Month. Written by columnist and editor Millie Harris, the column invites you to consider diversifying your bookshelf, widening your choice of genre and your view of the world. The column introduces a new book on the first of every month.
