The Cottage Under the Big Pines

Meer over het boek

Gardener Susan Southam allows readers to look through the window of 'Foxgloves Spires' - her former home of 30 years, located in rural Australia - and into the lushly romantic and soul-filled interior within. Inside Foxglove Spires tells the nostalgic love story between Southam and her restored century-old timber cottage in a collection of essay-like chapters, themed around seasons and colours and supported by an abundance of photographs. Southam's writing is heartfelt, emotional and honest; her photographs capture the spirit of her home with its astonishingly beautiful garden, as well as the details of her colour schemes, decoration and furnishings. Inside Foxglove Spires provides incredible inspiration for readers and opens our eyes to the humble details of our environment that enrich our everyday lives.
