Teru reviewed Gardener's Year by Josef Čapek
A fun read about the nature of hobbies
4 stars
A humorous celebration of gardening as a hobby. The love for it comes through with every well-crafted paragraph. The book playfully skewers the hard work and obsession the hobby demands as well as the inherently quixotic struggle to get nature to conform to human will. The illustrations are delightfully expressive in a storybook sort of way and add much to the tone.
