Description

Diane Ackerman's Cultivating Delight is a sensual exploration of the natural world, as she tends to her garden through the seasons. With each passing day, the garden reveals its drama and extravagance, from the profusion of roses to the quiet beauty of a slug. In this lyrical prose, Ackerman celebrates the simple pleasures of nature - the sweetness of sugar water for hummingbirds, the fragrance of flowers, and the intricate details of the natural world. Her writing is a hymn to the beauty and wonder of the garden, inviting readers to slow down and appreciate its beauty. Through her observations, Ackerman reveals the interconnectedness of all living things, and the ways in which our gardens can become sanctuaries for both humans and wildlife.
