A Saturday treat

A French novel to read.
I adore her previous novel, l'Elégance du hérisson.
I read that one in English the first time round.

Cypresses


Cypresses, originally uploaded by Rhian vK.

Within the next month or two these mighty horrors are going to be felled.
They're standing at 12-15 metres high, and are not too far from my house.
But look, they're closer still to my neighbours' buildings.

This little patch will be so much nicer once the nasty laurels have been felled

The 'boule de neige' will be able to stand up straight, and blossom in
all its glory, the little hibiscus, too.
And the zucca will appear in all its jungly weirdness.
