Description
The Morville Hours: A Book of Hours. In this beautifully written and absorbing book, Katherine Swift weaves together the stories of those who have lived in the same Shropshire house over thousands of years. Spanning centuries, her meditation on the seasons becomes a journey of self-exploration, as she reflects on finding one's place in the world and putting down roots. Through the lens of gardening and the passing down of stories, Swift explores the human experience, creating a unique and meditative book that is both a history of the house and a personal exploration.
