All the Year in the Garden

All the Year in the Garden ed. by Esther Matson

Make you the tour of the world,—for me, I will make the tour of my Garden.

You will . . . describe to me some far-off country; I will delineate what my garden affords. The seasons as they pass away are climates which travel round the globe and come to seek me. . . . Your long voyages are nothing by fatiguing visits which you go to pay to the seasons that would themselves have come to you.

Alphonse Karr, Tour round my Garden
