Fine, in better than Near Fine jacket (spine lightly toned, ends nicked). Chosen for the Heinemann Prize, which Sackville-West spent on azaleas for the garden at Sissinghurst. Cross & Ravenscroft-Hulme A.13a and A.44a. The Land, dedicated to Sackville-West's lover Dorothy Wellesley, "was an ambitious attempt to write a modern version of Virgil's Georgics by celebrating the annual round of the Kentish farming year." It proved enduringly popular, selling more than 100,000 copies, and has been reprinted more than 20 times in England alone. Divided into four sections according to the seasons, with vivid descriptions of the toil of ploughmen, craftsmen, beekeepers, and shepherds. Twenty years later came The Garden, a bit briefer than The Land and also divided into season. It is more personal and less sweeping than the earlier poem, and tries to sum up Sackville-West's horticultural aesthetic as displayed in the garden at Sissinghurst, with its linked sections "distinguished by predominant colour themes (such as the influential white garden), or by concentration on the flowers of a certain season . . .
