Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Why do you garden? For fun? Work? Food? The reasons to garden are as unique as the gardener. The Roots of My Obsession features thirty essays from the most vital voices in gardening, exploring the myriad motives and impulses that cause a person to become a gardener. For some, it's the quest to achieve a personal vision of ultimate beauty; for others, it's a mission to heal the earth, or to grow a perfect peach. The essays are as distinct as their authors, and yet each one is direct, engaging, and from the heart. For Doug Tallamy, a love of plants is rooted first in a love of animals: "animals with two legs (birds), four legs (box turtles, salamanders, and foxes), six legs (butterflies and beetles), eight legs (spiders), dozens of legs (centipedes), hundreds of legs (millipedes), and even animals with no legs (snakes and pollywogs)." For Rosalind Creasy, it's "not the plant itself; it's how you use it in the garden." And for Sydney Eddison, the reason has changed throughout the years. Now, she "gardens for the moment." As you read, you may find yourself nodding your head in agreement, or gasping in disbelief. What you're sure to encounter is some of the best writing about the gardener's soul ever to appear. For anyone who cherishes the miracle of bringing forth life from the soil, The Roots of My Obsession is essential inspiration. …

Tom Foster has established himself as the go-to literature expert for scores of readers across America; in his surefire bestselling hit How to Read Literature Like a Professor and its follow-up, How to Read Novels, he has opened countless literary minds to the finer points of reading and analyzing beloved books, all with his inimitable wit, good humor, and attention to detail?the very characteristics that define our favorite teachers and professors. In this newest book, he applies that combination of know-how and analysis and looks at the great masterworks of American literature and how each of them has shaped our very existence as readers, students, teachers, and Americans.  Starting with Ben Franklin?s autobiography, he moves on to James Fenimore Cooper?s The Last of the Mohicans, Henry David Thoreau?s Walden, Walt Whitman?s Leaves of Grass, and Willa Cather?s My Antonia. Chief among later selections are The Maltese Falcon, U.S.A., The Grapes of Wrath, and Song of Solomon. Foster illuminates how these and other works captured an American moment, how they influenced our perception of nationhood and citizenship, and what about them endures in the American character.
