This is Derek Jarman's diary from 1989/1990 as he moves between London and Dungeness and in and out of hospital. The parts about the garden could use more colour pictures really to show what he is talking about, though perhaps my limited interest in gardening limits my interest a bit anyway! I was more interested in the bits of gossip about touring with the Pet Shop Boys and being out and about in London. Sometimes the format of a diary means there is a bit of a lack of framing/context as obviously Jarman wouldn't have needed it at the time. Anyway although the book didn't blow me away I did come out of it really wanting to visit Prospect Cottage, and with a renewed interest in Jarman's work.
