Jardin De Leila (Le)

Le Carre Hermes > Spring-Summer 2014

Vines take root in vast trees, their strange, almost animal blossoms adding to the climate of mystery. Time becomes fluid, impalpable. This kingdom of plants is inhibited by the murmuring wind in the bamboo, by birdsong and the chorus of frogs from the depths of the ponds... Anyone entering this place is touched by its grace and beauty. Do we not say a garden is the image of Paradise?
