Green Grass Library: an Emotional History
About This Novel
The soothing power of plants can be seen from our balconies and on the sidewalks of our cities, and modern citizens are aware of this. Today, green beings have regained their rights, to satisfy a desire and to recover lost emotions. Many people have praised the magical power of grass. From Lucretius to Petrarch, from Ronsard to George Sand, from Lamartine to Rene Charles... In this book, the author sorts out the tributes paid by literary and artistic giants to grass in various states: from a single plant to a clump, from wild growth to decline. This allows us to once again feel those familiar throbbings: the joy of children rolling on the lawn, the comfort of taking a nap on the grass after a meal, the fresh smell of the grass being cut, the excitement of the natural kingdom in the grass, the passion of using the sky as a cover and grass as a mat, until finally the peace brought by the green grass in the cemetery. The author summarizes the text fragments with the theme of "grass" from the perspective of a historian, leading us on a lush and emotional walk. This book is poetic and healing, full of delicate feelings and thoughts, bringing the call of nature to busy readers in the city.
