Description
Discover the enchanting world of Virginia Woolf's garden at Monk's House, a haven that inspired some of her most celebrated works.
This beautifully illustrated book takes you on a journey through the various garden 'rooms' of Monk's House, a country retreat purchased by Virginia and Leonard Woolf in 1919. Explore the Italian Garden, the Fishpond Garden, the Millstone Terrace and the Walled Garden, each presented in the context of the lives of the Woolfs.
With rare archive images and embroidered garden plans, this book offers a unique glimpse into the daily routines of the Woolfs at Rodmell, and the role their garden played in their lives as a source of both pleasure and inspiration.
