Book SynopsisThe Sunday Times bestseller
Trade Review‘A magical book. I have read it twice now. I love the richness of Katherine Swift's prose; the flashes of her family's story that are scattered through the deliciously written text; the gorgeous detail. The Morville Hours is the most beautiful book I have read in years' * Nigel Slater *
‘An intriguing, magical story of a place, a person and her plants' * Anna Pavord, author of The Naming of Names *
‘A truly remarkable book that is both intimate and universal. We are left with a renewed sense of what it is to be human, and of how we make our place in a world that is intricate, unpredictable and filled with quotidian mysteries' * Daily Telegraph *
‘This is gardening writing at its best. Swift's prose brings the garden alive in all its details, scents and meaning ... Evocative, heartfelt and magical' * Guardian *
