Women in the Garden

Women in the Garden lights on a winning combination: cultivating the soil and renewing the language. The gardener's routine, like that of the poet, sharpens observation and fosters the contemplative spirit. Though the book's focus is in the garden, the situations are varied and as much outside the individual's control as the elements. Wind, rain, and sun may help or hinder growth, but the key to success in both gardening and writing is a ready receptivity, something Sanelli brings to the ordinary happenings of each day.
