With vividness and humor, Sucher's narrative reveals the many facets of gardening-the profound satisfaction of shaping a landscape, the generous spirit of a land-based community, and the fingerprint individuality expressed in a neighbor's flower bed. Sucher's invisible garden is the territory where nature can trigger memory and emotion through associations that are personal or mythic, pleasurable or painful. Her stories range from the strangers who arrive to help after a storm, to an elderly widow who practices "Evil Eye gardening," to the prodigy who creates his first topiary at the age of six. When Sucher decides to build a pond, her frustrations transform meditations on nature into memories of her mother's final years. Like Under the Tuscan Sun and Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, The Invisible Garden celebrates the resonating sublimity in nature and the soul's inner reach. A lovely book with woodcuts by Mary Azarian.
