The Garden Against Time is a passionate, epic exploration of the power and possibilities of gardens. Moving between real and imagined gardens, from Milton's Paradise Lost and Derek Jarman's Dungeness, to an artistocratic pleasure ground funded by slavery, Laing interrogates the sometimes shocking cost of making paradise on earth, but also illuminates the pleasures and possibilities of gardens.
