Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Garden of Spices
In the evening, When the tide is low, and the bees have ceased their humming, and the moon shines in a silver pathway over the sea, I still lie here, in an atmosphere heavy with the fragrance of sweet-scented stocks, and evening primroses opening their pale chalices to the moonbeams. It is a garden of sweet scents.
Then, sometimes, there comes upon me a great longing, and my heart aches with the memory of past loves. I cry aloud with the sacred poet to the north wind to awake and blow upon my gar den that the spices thereof may ?ow out.
