Garden Lunacy: A Growing Concern
"Award-winning New Jersey writer, lecturer, and photographer Art Wolk has revealed all in Garden Lunacy. If you hunger for garden humor, or know someone who does, join him as he light-heartedly tiptoes through the tulips to bring us his own brand of horticultural histrionics. Never a dull moment." Horticulture Magazine.........."Gardeners will laugh as they recognize themselves, but they will also be comforted by the fact that there are people out there who are even more obsessive than they are. A true pleasure." Library Journal.........."I thoroughly enjoyed Garden Lunacy!" Fred Roberts, Director of Longwood Gardens..........Art Wolk is the Dave Barry of garden writing.  Elvin McDonald, author of more than 50 garden books.........."The funniest book on gardening and gardeners in years." The Reporter.com..........."A must-read." Kate Jerome, National Gardening Association.........."Deftly amusing...utterly irreverent...sharp-tongued wit and humor." Midwest Book Review.........."Garden Lunacy offers laughter to buck up the reader s spirits. We need more Art Wolks to serve as a lightning rod for our plant obsession and also to sooth our gardening discontents." Dr. William Scheick, Professor of English Literature, University of Texas at Austin (Choice Award winner for Outstanding Academic Book, Pushcart Prize winner, and Center for Humanities Research prize winner).........."It's not that Art Wolk makes me laugh (which he does, repeatedly), and it's not that he is a great gardener (which he is, having won the Grand Sweepstakes at the always amazing Philadelphia Flower Show). The reason you should be the first in your group to read Garden Lunacy is that Art's stories document and poke gentle fun at the foibles we gardeners hate to admit."
