Download The Writer in the Garden AudioBook Free
The Article writer in the Garden results in a glorious compendium of writing that is amusing, original, and idiosyncratic. Excerpts span not only the beauties of the garden but such far-reaching subject areas as weeds, the tribulations of gardening in a cold climate, the potential issues of rare place collecting, the delights of weeding, the pitfalls of growing roses, and the area of "tacky" in a garden. With selections carefully chosen from both sides of the Atlantic, this anthology compensates homage to the great garden writers of the 19th and early on 20th centuries while, at the same time, launching the listener to some of the most original voices of today's era of garden writers. Literature on gardening have grown to be a marketing trend. However, this is the first-time an anthology of garden writing has appeared on audio. Impeccably read by several professional stars, this potpourri of philosophical meanderings, keen observations, and sensible advice is essential listening for all gardeners and garden fans. The creators include Gertrude Jekyll, Vita Sackville-West, Abby Adams, Edith Wharton, Stephen Lacey, E. B. White, Beverly Nichols, Ken Druse, Eleanor Perenyi, W. S. Merwin, Mirabel Osler, Henry Mitchell, Jamaica Kincaid, Robert Dash, Sara B. Stein, Michael Pollan, M.F.K. Fisher, Anne Raver, Patti Hagan, and Paula Deitz.
