Synopsis
In the mid-1980s, Michael Pollan began gardening on the grounds of the old dairy farm he bought in Connecticut, a process that led to a series of musings on the troubled boundary between nature and contemporary life.
Industry Reviews
"...a quirky and pleasing book...the debut of a fresh and provocative voice in American writing."
Book Jacket - Annie Dillard
"I know no book on gardening that is quite as illuminating and fascinating as this one."
New York Times Book Review - Allen Lacy
"As a nongardener, I never expected to stay up late and laugh out loud at a book like this. But I've been permanently Pollan-ated."
Vanity Fair - Christopher Buckley
"When he says that a garden is a place for being in, rather than looking at, you know that here is someone who is concerned with more than picture-book aspirations. Those who want their gardens to have associations, to mean something and who are endlessly intrigued...by how gardens can be down to earth and sublime at one and the same moment, will respond to Pollan."
Spectator - Mary Keen (12/07/1996)
