Descriere magazin:
For readers of Late Migrations and Vesper Flights A stunning meditation on gardening and the wisdom of plants, that rare book that will appeal to nonfiction readers everywhere ... Candid, tender, thoughtful and absorbing. -- Shelf Awareness (STARRED Review) With chapters... [that] shimmer like lantern slides, lit with luminous imagery ... Seed to Dust is an invitation to read this world as Mr. Hamer does--with a close eye to what changes, and what does not.-- The Wall Street Journal Marc Hamer has nurtured the same 12-acre garden in the Welsh countryside for over two decades. The garden is vast and intricate. It\'s rarely visited, and only Hamer knows of its secrets. But it\'s not his garden. It belongs to his wealthy and elegant employer, Miss Cashmere. But the garden does not really belong to her, either. As Hamer writes, Like a book, a garden belongs to everyone who sees it. In Seed to Dust , Marc Hamer paints a beautiful portrait of the garden that belongs to everyone. He describes a year in his life as a country gardener, with each chapter named for the month he\'s in. As he works, he muses on the unusual folklores of his beloved plants. He observes the creatures who scurry and hide from his blade or rake. And he reflects on his own life: living homeless as a young man, his loving relationship with his wife and children, and--now--feeling the effects of old age on body and mind. As the seasons change, Hamer also reflects on the changes he has observed in Miss Cashmere\'s life from afar: the death of her husband and the departure of her children from the stately home where she now lives alone. At the book\'s end, Hamer\'s connection to Miss Cashmere changes shape, and new insights into relationships and the beauty and brutality of nature emerge. Just like all good books and gardens, Seed to Dust is filled with equal parts life and death, beauty and decay, and every reader will find something different to admire.
