Written just after the First World War, this medley is set in an English garden where the narrator spars with Dorothy, who frowns at his literary schemes. Their talk drifts from roses and herbaceous borders to books, history, clergy, damnation and the follies of the day, all in a mood of hard-won quiet.
A gently humorous garden book for readers who like their horticulture with conversation. Download the free EPUB.
