The Morville Hours: The Story of a Garden | Katherine Swift

2 posts | 1 read | 3 to read

In 1988 Katherine Swift arrived at the Dower House at Morville to create a garden of her own. This beautifully written, utterly absorbing book is the history of the many people who have lived in the same Shropshire house, tending the same soil, passing down stories over the generations. Spanning thousands of years, The Morville Hours takes the form of a medieval Book of Hours. It is a meditative journey through the seasons, but also a journey of self-exploration. It is a book about finding one's place in the world and putting down roots.

This is an intelligent erudite read which references many different disciplines as it charts the writers renovation of a garden and he reflections on her life and the memory of her parents. This is a wonderful book.
