The Gardener’s Year by Karel Čapek (Capek)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 8.2 MB
Overview: The creator of this book is best known internationally as the author of R.U.R., the science-fiction play that introduced the term “robot” to the world. Karel Čapek’s satiric gifts take a different turn in this impishly comic book, which recounts the trials, labors, joys, and meditations of the amateur gardener.

Rather than a how-to book, Čapek’s volume offers a lighthearted mock-treatise on the pains and rewards of tending a small and resistant garden plot. From January to December, the author and his brother, illustrator Josef Čapek, trace the vagaries of the amateur horticulturist’s year, with brief side notes on seeds, the soil, plants, the beauties of autumn, and other aspects of gardening. Fifty-nine delightful drawings complement this book, which will amuse readers with and without green thumbs.
