A poetical, beautifully descriptive book by best-selling Irish author Alice Taylor will take you to a garden that was left to her, a wilderness that remained so for many years. When she finally began to transform it, through trial and error she found more than satisfaction at the changes taking place, but refuge and solace there. Her love of nature comes through, as does the sense of community ... This book has plenty of evocative photographs, but it is the lyrical writing that will keep you turning the page. Not a professional gardener, nor a tidy one by her own admission, Alice is a story teller writing about the plants and the people she loves, making this a delightful read
