The Sensuous Garden by Monty Don (1997)

Description: The Sensuous Garden by Montagu Don (1997) Editorial Reviews Book Description Explains how to appreciate one's garden with the senses of touch, sight, hearing, taste, smell, and intuition. Amazon.com Review The Oxford English Dictionary defines "sensuous" to mean "affecting the senses, especially aesthetically," and Montagu Don's The Sensuous Garden provides a gardening ideal for all five senses (or six, if you count intuition) to wallow in. How often do we really experience a garden fully, with all our senses? Sight, smell, and taste are the easy ones, but the other two are too often slighted. Touch: bark, mud, a grainy handful of seeds. Hearing: birds, rustling grasses, the satisfying crunch of fallen leaves. The sensuous approach is combined with sensible gardening advice in the text, but really, you'll want this one mostly for the pictures and for the inspiration it will give you to go out and just be in your own garden. Review This book will bring your senses alive and you will never look at the world the same!!! I would recommend this book to anyone who loves to read about something that makes them realize after putting the book down that there is something called the 5 senses that you have and your not using. Read the book and start using the senses you were born with as they are there for a reason. There really is nothing ugly in the world because everything has a purpose. I will never look at a garden the same again, I now know how much time, effort, blood sweat and tears goes into it. The book is in a good used condition. · Please be serious about your bids.
