In this unique gardening chronicle Vita Sackville-West weaves together simple, honest accounts of her horticultural experiences throughout the year with exquisite writing and poetic description. Whether singing the praises of sweet-briar, cyclamen, Indian pinks and the Strawberry grape, or giving practical advice on pruning roses, planting bulbs, overcoming frosts and making the most of a small space, her writings on the art of good gardening are both instructive and delightful.… (altro)
This is a reprinting of some of Vita Sackville-West columns written for the Observer in the years after World War II. She writes knowledgeably and with lots of subtle humour about the joys and considerations of gardening. Living not that far for Sackville-West's beautiful garden, Sissinghurst, this book is both an inspiration and reprimand, as while I don't have the same resources and space as her, I really could do more with the garden I have! This is also an interesting insight into the Britain of 60 years ago, and a look at how gardening trends and ideas change (or in many cases, change very little!) ( )
