Description

"Elizabeth and Her German Garden" by Elizabeth von Arnim is a novel published in 1898. Written as a year's diary, it follows Elizabeth as she cultivates a garden on her husband's Pomeranian estate while gently satirizing German bourgeois society and those around her. This semi-autobiographical work combines observations on nature with humor drawn from Elizabeth's gardening misadventures and unconventional views on life. Originally published anonymously to protect the author's identity, it became an immediate bestseller with twenty-one reprints by 1899. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
