The Backyard Parables by Margaret Roach

The Backyard Parables by Margaret Roach

This book came out in 2013, and the subtitle is Lessons on Gardening and Life.

And one of my favorite cookbook authors, Anna Thomas, said,

"As I read this witty, revealing, sometimes poetic confessional I felt I understood for the first time what a garden could be - a work of art, a source of pleasure and solace, an object of beauty, a provider of nourishment. And why Margaret calls the plot she tends 'my monster.' This is the story of a real relationship: Margaret and her garden, a love story."

This book is 288 pages of Margaret’s stories about gardening - culled from thirty seasons of growing and learning what works and what does not.
