"A successor the "The Gift of a Garden", Beverley Nichols's "The Gift of a home" celebrates Act 2 in the dramatic sequence of his gardening life. A condensed edition of an earlier trilogy--'Merry Hall, Laughter on the Stairs and Sunlight on the Lawn'-- it is a rich pot-pourri of wit, nostalgia and sheer high spirits"-dj.
