Description
A Gull on the Roof: Tales from a Cornish Flower Farm
Derek Tangye's first title in the Minack Chronicles, this memoir recounts the couple's decision to leave behind their London home and establish a flower farm on the coast of Cornwall. The story begins with the couple's early struggles, including their first animals, Monty the ginger cat.
As the book unfolds, Tangye shares tales of trials and tribulations, but also moments of hope and renewal. A pivotal moment comes when a gull appears on the roof, signaling better times to come.
