My life in a garden : love, loss and mulch : a single dad seeks answers in nature

Gorham, Carl2025
Books, Manuscripts
When TV comedy writer Carl Gorham moved out of London to the country with his wife and young daughter in 2005, he swopped a small, terraced cottage with a thirty-foot garden for a large, detached house in Norfolk with three acres. An extraordinary fifteen years followed, a roller coaster ride of extraordinary highs and lows - bereavement, recovery, prosperity, unemployment, illness, triumph, struggle and happiness. 'My Life in a Garden' describes that emotional, dramatic and comic period, a story told through the changing relationship between the author and his garden. How they were enemies, then friends. How he hated it, how he missed it. How he drew strength and support and understanding from it. How at times it seemed as if it was rebelling against him and trying to teach him something about his own stubbornness.
