My son picked this because of the garden title and garden part of the

story and sent it for my birthday:



The Garden of Evening Mists by Tan Twan Eng.



ISBN 978 1 78211 0187



The Japanese-garden aspect is one part of a wonderful story; I raved

about it for weeks so J bought me the same author's other book for

Christmas (The Gift of Rain) which is nothing to do with gardening but

just as gripping.

Enjoy



Janet.

I've been wondering about that too, might give it a try.
My wife and I have just enjoyed Elizabeth Gilbert's 'Signature of all things' A bit of botanical/biological interest will aid enjoyment.
