Book Description
Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Foxing to foredges and preliminary pages. Binding is still very good.
Between the Leaves is an intimate exploration into the lives of nine 20th-century women who wrote about their gardens in their letters and diaries. This book explores the notion that a garden, as both a private and public space, offered these women a refuge for memories, a place where their personal stories, fantasies and longing found expression.
Includes Gertrude Bell, Eva Kirk, Mildred Hood, Ann Tully, Jean Galbraith, Winifred Stephensen, Katharine Susannah Prichard, Wendy O'Dowd and Judith Wright. (publisher blurb)
