Beatrix Farrand's Plant Book for Dumbarton Oaks

The Plant Book for Dumbarton Oaks was prepared as a resource for those charged with maintenance of the gardens following their acquisition by Harvard University in 1941. Beatrix Farrand here explains the reasoning behind her plan for each of the gardens and stipulates how each should be cared for in order that its basic character remain intact. Her resourceful suggestions for alternative plantings, her rigorous strictures concerning pruning and replacement, her exposition of the overall concept that underlies each detail, and the plant lists that accompany her discussion of each garden make this a volume of interest to every student, practitioner, and lover of landscape design.

Wolf Country

London, 2050. The socio-economic crisis of recent decades is over and consumerism is thriving. Ownership of land outside the city is the preserve of a tiny elite, and the rest of the population must spend to earn a Right to Reside. Ageing has been abolished thanks to a radical new approach, replacing retirement with blissful euthanasia at a Dignitorium. When architect Philip goes missing, his wife, Alice, risks losing her home and her status, and begins to question the society in which she was raised. Her search for him uncovers some horrifying truths about the fate of her own family and the reality behind the new social order. Wolf Country is a powerful dystopian vision in the spirit of Black Mirror and Never Let Me Go. 'A chilling and politically astute dystopia – sci-fi in the tradition of Wyndham' – Jane Rogers

Garden

In Matthew Costello’s classic horror novel, Wurm, a life from is raised from the ultimate depths, a creature that exists under near-alien conditions of intense heat, poison gasses, deadly… And when released, humanity learns that this twisted form of "life" is also the ultimate parasite. And in the end, even when it seems that the spread of this worm-like parasite has been stopped…we know it hasn’t. Now five years later, in Garden, what was feared has turned into fact. The world is a changed place. Shorelines and open water, all strictly out of bounds, patrolled by soldiers who are ordered to shoot to kill. But yet the parasite continues to spread, to transform the humans it infects, to turn, Earth with a relentless spreading plague, the garden of Eden that is the planet from a garden…to a hell. And now, with hopelessness replacing all hope, there is – perhaps – one last chance to stop it. And even that chance may be coming too late…
