The second book in the trilogy entitled The Cycle of the Garden, The Wellspring of Glances is the sequel - but not the second part - of The Gardener. Already in the prologue, Grian warns that it did not seem appropriate to make a second part of his international bestseller, but that, beyond the character of the gardener, the garden continued to exist as a place of peace and learning, as a setting for teachings that have their origin in Life itself, whose most beautiful expression is the garden.

Produktbeschreibung
The second book in the trilogy entitled The Cycle of the Garden, The Wellspring of Glances is the sequel - but not the second part - of The Gardener. Already in the prologue, Grian warns that it did not seem appropriate to make a second part of his international bestseller, but that, beyond the character of the gardener, the garden continued to exist as a place of peace and learning, as a setting for teachings that have their origin in Life itself, whose most beautiful expression is the garden. Thus, without a gardener but with a garden, an apprentice and new characters, The Wellspring of Glances takes us back to the wisdom of simplicity, to the reading of the great book of the wise: nature. But this time without the masterly discourse of the gardener, but through the reflections and images with which the narration envelops us, through the tenderness, humor, peace and surprise that run through the paths of the garden. This is a book for those who feel faint in the face of the harshness of the world, a book where the reader can lean out and, in the mirror of the spring, contemplate once again the primordial purity of his or her eyes. The Wellspring of Glances, Grian's most mature work, both creatively and spiritually, is destined to follow in the footsteps of the first book of The Garden Cycle.
