The playful spirit grows in these beautifully photographed gardens, which delight with droll humor and visual enchantment. The unusual presentation of unique landscapes bypasses ordinary horticultural know-how and conventional design principles; instead it delves into the tradition of garden wit, illusion, and trickery. Best of all, most of these concepts aren't hard to achieve, from the teasing perspective of a \"trompe l'oeil\" to a fence brightly decorated with colored bottles. More daring visions appear too, including some amazing statues and ornamentations. One garden even has a bridge with hands flung up under it from the lake below, suggesting either a person emerging--or one drowning! A joy to look at and to read. \"A Selection of Garden Book Club.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Cassell","offers":[{"title":"Gardens of Illusion | Sara Maitland | Hardcover | 9780304354344 | Used: Very Good | Gardening 1705274","offer_id":48749843972248,"sku":"1705274","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51Z7AWCVKNL.jpg?v=1773933964","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/gardens-of-illusion","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
