Description
Watering, fertilizing, repotting. Living. Suddenly it’s here — a person is an adult, without a partner, with a dubious career and even more dubious housing. They start to look back to childhood and remember its beautiful certainties. For journalist Alice Vincent, in a similar situation, her grandfather's garden became such a certainty, her freedom, peace, and beauty. However, she did not stop at mere memories: after a relationship breakdown, she began to plant, cultivate, and let houseplants live wherever and whenever she could. And as her plants thrived, she soon began to thrive as well... Repotted is a remarkable book that straddles the genres of essay, the history of botany, and a gardening glossary. Above all, it is a gardening experiment to maintain sanity in a world that may be moving too fast.
