Summary:
When Barney Bardsley's husband was diagnosed with cancer he was just 36. When he died, ten trying years after his diagnosis, Barney felt alone and exhausted. Their savings had all gone and now she must support their child single-handedly. She would just have to take life one day at a time. She took to tending her small allotment. Fresh air, wildlife, nature's cycles of growth and decay - she found solace in it all. Above all, she charts how her own life is slowly restored, under the garden's healing influence.
