Book excerpt: A call for landscape architects to leave the office and return to the garden. Addressing one of the most repressed subjects in landscape architecture, this book could only have been written by someone who is both an experienced gardener and a landscape architect. With Overgrown, Julian Raxworthy offers a watershed work in the tradition of Ian McHarg, Anne Whiston Spirn, Kevin Lynch, and J. B. Jackson. As a discipline, landscape architecture has distanced itself from gardening, and landscape architects take pains to distinguish themselves from gardeners or landscapers. Landscape architects tend to imagine gardens from the office, representing plants with drawings or other simulations, whereas gardeners work in the dirt, in real time, planting, pruning, and maintaining. In Overgrown, Raxworthy calls for the integration of landscape architecture and gardening. Each has something to offer the other: Landscape architecture can design beautiful spaces, and gardening can enhance and deepen the beauty of garden environments over time. Growth, says Raxworthy, is the medium of garden development; landscape architects should leave the office and go into the garden in order to know growth in an organic, nonsimulated way. Raxworthy proposes a new practice for working with plant material that he terms “the viridic” (after “the tectonic” in architecture), from the Latin word for green, with its associations of spring and growth. He builds his argument for the viridic through six generously illustrated case studies of gardens that range from “formal” to “informal” approaches—from a sixteenth-century French Renaissance water garden to a Scottish poet-scientist's “marginal” garden, barely differentiated from nature. Raxworthy argues that landscape architectural practice itself needs to be “gardened,” brought back into the field. He offers a “Manifesto for the Viridic” that casts designers and plants as vegetal partners in a renewed practice of landscape gardening.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide variety of characters saunter, stalk, run, and sometimes hide in these lively stories about contemporary Southerners. Their experiences revolve around the way life is felt and the way it is lived, reflecting a gap between the plans we make for ourselves and the way things actually turn out. From the jungles of Vietnam to the bayous of Louisiana, from the French countryside to Vicksburg, Mississippi, Ely's stories reveal how human beings' unpredictable, unconscious motivations will have their say no matter what steps are taken to silence them. Certain shadows fall over all the characters - especially the shadows of the Vietnam experience and the struggle between a traditional Southern heritage and the conflicting ideals of contemporary society. The characters in Ely's stories seem powerless to defend themselves against the ever-changing expectations of a modern life, and yet they gain a new humanity and depth when, with dignity, they embrace their limitations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German occupation of Czechoslovakia is now over. Apart from severe fire damage to the ancient City Hall, Prague has survived unscathed. Deportees are returning to the city. Some never return. When the young men who had fought with the Allies view the political uncertainty in Czechoslovakia, many decide to stay in England. Those who return are soon persecuted by the new regime, deemed to be traitors. The Communist coup d'etat in 1948 ushers in 40 years of totalitarianism. After a perilous entry into the world, Annicka, the child born in Terezin but now living in England, is far removed from the troubles in the land of her birth. As she grows up, however, there are unexpected twists and revelations in her life and the lives of those whom she loves and holds dear.

Book excerpt: DCI Thurstan Baddeley, takes over his new desk at the local Police Force’s Major Investigations Team and, naturally, he’s expecting to deal with a few odd murders, it’s what they specialise in. What he didn’t expect was the arrival of an assassin, and certainly not one who seemed so reluctant to leave. It doesn’t take him long to realise he’s not dealing with an organised crime ‘hitman’. There’s something about this one that makes him suspect bigger forces at play.
