Long description: This novel is based on the life of Linnaeus, the eighteenth-century, Swedish enlightenment figure famous for his taxonomy or scientific classification still used in biology. It principally concerns the different ways Linnaeus and his gardener interpret the world around them. The gardener perceives plants for what they are in themselves and Linnaeus for what they are in relation to other things. They never understand each other and the dialogues are wonderfully inconclusive.

Jag lyssnade på en inläsning av boken gjord av Reine Brynolfsson, och jag njöt storligen.

Typiskt språk, men här blev det lite mycket. Det finns en viss "sommarkänsla" i det här sättet att skriva - dröjande matter-of-fact-tankar vid sidan av.
