We Made a Garden

Margery Fish

Beschreibung

An elegant new edition of a classic book from one of the twentieth century's greatest garden writers.
This landmark work on creating a garden was first published in 1956 and has rarely been out of print since. We Made a Garden is the story of how Margery Fish, one of the leading British gardeners of the mid-20th century, and her husband Walter transformed an acre of wilderness into a stunning cottage garden, still open to the public at East Lambrook Manor, Somerset, England. Quirky and readable, this book details her creation of a world-renowned cottage garden, as well as her battles with Walter in the process, who preferred the standard suburban approach.
In this beautiful and timeless work, she recounts the trials and tribulations, the successes and failures of her venture with ease and humour. Topics covered are colourful and diverse, ranging from the most suitable hyssop for the terraced garden through composting, hedges and making paths to the best time to lift and replant tulip bulbs. This book has been hailed as everything from a blueprint for the creation of a modern cottage garden to a feminist manifesto, and the author's practical knowledge, imaginative ideas and general good sense will encourage and inspire gardeners everywhere.

Narrated by your new Korean best friend, Dami, this isn't a lecture—it's a fun, fascinating chat that turns your "Wait, what just happened?" moments into "Aha! Now I get it!" moments.
Inside, you will decode:The Social Code: Master the art of sseom (the "something" stage) and mildang (the push-pull game).The Life Code: Uncover the real meaning behind birthday seaweed soup, moving-day jjajangmyeon, and the ever-present sheet mask ritual.The Drinking Code: Learn the complex etiquette of the soju bottle—the two-handed pour, the head turn, and the empty glass rule.The Class Code: Understand the "Spoon Class System" (geumsujeo vs. heuksujeo) and how it fuels the plot of your favorite romances.
Each chapter gives you a "Decoder's Playbook" for real-life situations and "Level-Up Vocabulary" to sound like a pro.
Stop just watching K-dramas. It's time to truly speak them.
Download the audiobook that will take your next K-drama binge-watch to a whole new level.
