Second Nature
by Michael Pollan
In his articles and in best-selling books such as The Botany of Desire, Michael Pollan has established himself as one of our most important and beloved writers on modern man's place in the natural world. A new literary classic, Second Nature has become a manifesto not just for gardeners but for environmentalists everywhere. Chosen by the American Horticultural Society as one of the seventy-five greatest books ever written about gardening, Second Nature captures the rhythms of our everyday engagement with the outdoors in all its glory and exasperation. With chapters ranging from a reconsideration of the Great American Lawn, a dispatch from one man's war with a woodchuck, to an essay about the sexual politics of roses, Pollan has created a passionate and eloquent argument for reconceiving our relationship with nature.

Krislyn Floral Couture
A visit to this Los Angeles shop will leave you in awe at what can be done with flowers and a variety of other natural objects. Each piece is truly a work of art. As you may guess, floral couture does not come cheap. Take heart in knowing that many of the objects are actually quite permanent, such as their signature moss and jewel trees, unlike your typical bouquet that will fade within a week. |
