My Wild Garden: Notes from a Writer's Eden
by Meir Shalev
Thanks to Knopf Books for my ARC
As long as you do not expect this book to be something it's not, it's delightful. It's chock full of beautifully poetic observations, gardening tips, and even a few recipes. But it is very much a series of "notes," not a memoir or anything like that in the traditional sense.
With that being said, the notes do sort of seem to have some sort of logical flow to them. Even if this book just sort of gently bears you along on Shalev's observations, it still feels like a well-ordered, cohesive whole.
