- Little Sparta: The Garden Of Ian Hamilton Finlay
Ian Hamilton Finlay's unique creation in the Pentland Hills is a garden composed as an artwork. It incorporates concrete poetry, moral polemic, philosophical reflection and a sparkling sense of humour. This book offers a sense of the diversity and originality of the garden, unfolding the layers of meaning it contains.
