Philosophy in the Garden by Damon Young

Philosophy in the Garden by Damon Young

This book came out in April of 2020 and it explores the relationships between “relationships: authors and their gardens. “

The Daily Telegraph said,

“This is a gardening book that takes readers not on a walk around great estates but on a tour of great minds…It's a lovely extension on the notion that gardens make you contemplative and in working with the soil you see life's big picture.”

The book is 208 pages of authors and their gardens. For example:
“Why did Marcel Proust have bonsai beside his bed? 
What was Jane Austen doing, coveting an apricot? 
How was Friedrich Nietzsche inspired by his ‘thought tree’?”
