GARDEN PLOTS: THE POLITICS AND POETICS OF GARDENS.

Description:

"Shelley Saguaro's unique book illustrates the persistent presence of gardens in literature. Gardens in fiction do not simply represent a familiar theme, Saguaro contends, but are bound up with wider aesthetic and ideological issues. As with literary forms, so too are gardens subject to transformations."--Jacket.
