| book description |
In 1927, at the Hogarth Press, Virginia Woolf produced and published a limited edition, with a jacket design and decorative illustrations by her sister Vanesa Bell, of what was to become one of her best-loved stories. Seventy-two years later The Hogarth Press at Chatto & Windus is proud to publish a beautiful facsimile edition of that much sought-after edition of Kew Gardens. The lush and haunting story circles round Kew Gardens, one hot day in July, as various odd and interesting couples walk by and talk, exchanging words but letting thoughts and memories float languorously above the gloosy leaves and exotic flowers, while at their feet a determined snail makes its slow way across a mountainous flowerbed. Gorgeously produced, a precise replica of that 1927 special edition, with Vanessa Bell's jacket and drawings round each page of text, this is a rare treat for aficionados of Bloomsbury and for those who love beautiful books.
