A life-affirming memoir about gardens and what they mean to us from childhood to old age, the joy we can find in ordinary things and our place in nature.

In Tales of Spring Rain: A Memoir through Family Gardens, writer and professional gardener, Marc Hamer, considers age and contentment and how we reconcile our sense of ourselves as children with where we have ended up as adults. Alternate chapters follow him as a child and his current life as a 65 year old and what home gardens have meant to both. He weaves practical gardening knowledge through these two meditative memoir strands as he describes the planning and planting of his new small garden near Cardiff.
