Aprašymas

„There is an odd, subversive book called The Decadent Gardener by Medlar Lucan and Durian Gray. The introduction describes the decadent gardening ethos thus: „In the garden, the decadent seeks to create a moment of beauty, which should be allowed to fall into decay and ruin.“ Gardening, Lucan and Gray believe, is „little more than systematic violence in pursuit of beauty“, and the gardener is first and foremost a sadist.

These two, the Kropotkin and De Sade of horticulture, understand that'nowhere are sex and death more intimately bound together than in the garden.“ For them the garden is a place of „agony, self-doubt and betrayal.“
