Book Reviews of Gardening at the Dragon's Gate: At Work in the Wild and Cultivated World
Book Review: Don't want this one to end.
Summary: 5 Stars
It's been a while since I have come across a book that I do not want to see end, and this is such a book.
I am about a third of the way through Gardening at the Dragon's Gate and already I am sad that it will eventually end. I do know, however, that once I have read it through I can have the pleasure of opening it at any point and enjoying it again, and again.
It is a book about gardening, about nature, about life, written beautifully, at times touching, at times funny. More than once I've found myself sitting on the bus reading it with tears suddenly stinging my eyes.
In fact, what am I doing sitting here, when I could be reading!?
