The essays in Time and the Garden reflect on one woman's experience and evolution as a gardener and devotee of rural, small town life. Like the "back to the land" movement of the 1970s, we are in a period of renewed interest in gardening and agrarian lifestyles. This book will appeal to gardeners, readers looking for a strong sense of place, and those who dream of such a life even if they aren't able to live it. It is not a how-to book, but gardeners may find these essays instructive. It is, perhaps, a cozy book. A good read on a snowy day.
