Description
“My story,” writes Dominique Browning, the editor in chief of House & Garden, “is about the way a house can express loss, and then bereavement, and then, finally, the rebuilding of a life.” Around the House and in the Garden is a moving narrative, culled from Browning’s much-loved monthly editorial column, about the solace and sense of self that can be found through tending to one’s home. From building a high stone wall in the garden to learning that every kitchen deserves a good kitchen couch, Browning reminds us that making a home is more than just a materialistic endeavor — it is a way for us to comfort and reinvent ourselves, to “have the final word about what goes feels comfortable, what is life gives us strength to go out and embrace the world.”
