About This Novel
"Our Sentimental Garden" is a prose essay co-written by Egerton Castle and his wife Angus Sweetman Castle in 1914. The text in the book is fresh and beautiful, describing what happened in Willino Rocky, a moorland in southern Surrey, England. There are people and things near the villa, and various flowers and plants are planted in the villa garden. With a tolerant and friendly vision, the author persists in exploring the endless charm of this wilderness, and builds an earthly paradise with beautiful scenery, like an illusory dream. The book was written during the war. The author hopes that this small suburban villa can become a place to recuperate. He hopes that the natural and harmonious lifestyle can attract those minds that are filled with fables and pictures of worldly strife. He hopes that soldiers who have suffered in the war can get rid of the bloody and blurred pictures in their dreams and be relaxed and healed.
