  • Becoming a Gardener - What Reading and Digging Taught Me About Living - cover

    Becoming a Gardener - What...

    A personal account of what it means to become a gardener. 
    To make her new house in Connecticut truly feel like home, Catie Marron decided to create a garden. But while she was familiar with landscape design, she had never grown anything. A dedicated reader with a lifelong passion for literature, Marron turned to the library of gardening books she’d collected to glean advice from a variety of writers on gardening and horticultural topics both grand and small.  
    Marron’s quest to become a gardener, however, was about more than learning the basics about mulch or which plants work best in the shade. She sought something far more elusive: to identify the core qualities and characteristics that make a person a gardener and an understanding of what a garden could mean to her as it had to multitudes of other gardeners over the centuries. 
    In Becoming a Gardener, Catie Marron chronicles her transformation into a gardener over the course of eighteen months, seeding the details of her experience with rich advice from writers as diverse as Eleanor Perényi and Karel Capek, Penelope Lively, and Jamaica Kincaid. As she digs deeper into her readings and works in the garden itself, Marron not only discovers the essence of gardening but in the words of Michael Pollan, “the endlessly engrossing ways that cultivating a garden attaches a body to the earth.” 
    A delightful blend of informed opinion, personal reflection, and practical advice, Becoming a Gardener explores topics as varied as the composition of dirt, the agricultural wisdom of avid kitchen gardeners George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, the healing power of digging in the soil, and the beauty of finding solitude in nature. Throughout, Marron carefully plants special illustrated features, such as musings on the merits (and detriments) of the rose, essential tools, moonlight gardening, children’s books which feature gardens, and her favorite gardens around the world. Also included is an annotated list of recommended writers, books, and films related to gardens and gardening, and a monthly to-do calendar. 
    Becoming a Gardener is a very special and moving portrait of life and the enduring power of literature and nature that is sure to become an instant classic.

    In the Catskills - Selections...

    In the Catskills gathers eight of John Burroughs's finest nature essays, first published by Houghton Mifflin in 1910 with photographic illustrations by Clifton Johnson. Burroughs — nicknamed "John o' Birds" for his devotion to birdlife and often credited with creating the modern nature essay — grew up on a farm in New York's Catskill Mountains, and this collection returns again and again to that landscape: snow-covered forests, hemlock groves, trout streams, and the peak of Slide Mountain. Listeners follow him snowshoeing after a red fox, tracing the rhythms of farm life through the seasons, searching out birds' nests each spring, and camping on a bed of hemlock boughs deep in the southern Catskills. Written in Burroughs's plain, observant prose, these essays helped define American nature writing and reflect the same careful attention to the natural world that made him a friend and correspondent of Walt Whitman, John Muir, and Theodore Roosevelt. A public-domain classic, this audiobook brings Burroughs's affectionate portrait of the Catskill wilderness to a new generation of listeners.
