Paradise Under Glass - Paperback

by Ruth Kassinger (Author)

Paradise Under Glass is a witty and absorbing memoir about one woman's unlikely desire to build, stock, and tend a small conservatory in her suburban Maryland home. Ruth Kassinger's wonderful story of the unique way she chose to cope with the profound changes in her life--a book that will delight readers of Eat, Pray, Love and I Feel Bad About My Neck--is interwoven with the fascinating history of conservatories from the Renaissance orangeries to the glass palaces of Kew.
