Sir Roy Strong calls Little Sparta the only really original garden
made in this country since 1945. Ian Hamilton Finlay's unique
creation in the Pentland Hills south of Edinburgh is a garden
composed as an artwork in itself. It incorporates concrete poetry,
moral polemic, philosophical reflection and a sparkling sense of
humour. While Finlay's works and installations throughout Europe
and North America are well documented and justly famous, this is
the first book devoted solely to the garden at Little Sparta, which
has been at the heart of his life's work. It offers readers a sense
of the diversity and originality of the garden along with a text
that unfolds the layers of meaning it contains.
