GARDENERS YEAR (COLLECTORS LIBRARY) (HB)

From making puddles with an untameable hose to sowing luxuriant weeds instead of grass, this is a charming and light-hearted insight into the life of an amateur gardener, by the author of R. U. R. and War with the Newts. Structured loosely around what to plant, grow or cultivate each month, Karel Capek takes us on a rollicking journey through a year in his own small garden. This edition features lively black and white illustrations by Josef Capek. Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library series.
