What a unique way to present the times and courts of James the First of England and Charles I. Comparisons are made between the courts and the country that was left by Good Queen Bess and the waste and profligacy of the Stuarts. And so much knowledge about importance of flora and it's introduction to England. Not the least of its appeals is the understand of human nature and diverse personalities and the way in which culture and especially religion impacts and develops such persons. Great read.
John Tradescant, gardener to the aristocracy, is a different type of protagonist from those Philipa Gregory usually places at the centre of her work. In her historical sagas such as 'The White Queen' and 'The Red Queen' and her Tudor works, women and gender relations are centre stage. In 'Earthly Joys' women's position is not neglected, but we are drawn into the life of a man whose loyalty to his master and a hierarchial way of looking at the world are examined.The novel did not resonate with me as immediately as Gregory's female centred works. However, Tradescant's period with William Cecil introduces the reader to the political wisdom of Cecil and Tradescant's own views as well as the development of Cecil's garden and, even his need to concur with his master, the king, when forced to relinquish his estate. With Cecil's death Tradescant acquires a very different type of master, and Gregory explores this period with with great sensitivity. Tradescant's last master, the king, comes into his life when he is beginning to question his adherance to hierarchy, echoing some of the views of his son, J.Elizabeth and Jane Tradescant, wives to John and J, present alternative views to John, and the usual feminist strand of Gregory's works is drawn through Frances, his grand daughter.The Kindle version of the novel suffers from poor editing. I is often used instead of J for John's son and this is disconcerting. However, despite this flaw, I was keen to read to the end and to reconsider my initial reluctance to become embroiled in a man's life instead of those of the female protagonists so familiar in Gregory's novels.
Describes the Stuart monarchs through the eyes of a landscaper. Not comfortable with the descriptions of the homosexual activities, but did learn some things about George Villiers, King James, King Charles I, and other notables of that time
I love Phillippa Gregory, but I did not like this book. She introduced an entirely unhistorical sexual preference for the major charcter that was conjecture only. Without the unnecessary fiction, it was an interesting book
Tremendously enjoyable. Great to read Philippa Gregory with a male central character. Her knowledge of gardening, the history of garden styles in Europe and their evolution as the culture changes are marvelous. Rich characters and, as usual, awesome detail and style. Really excellent book. Read it.
What a great read. Loved it and bought as gift for Mom Christmas
Read in conjunction with Virgin Earth. A story of life during these times Cromwell/Charles, through the eyes of Royal gardeners, their trials and tribulations and struggle to remain loyal to the Court at the same time remaining true to their own values. Most enjoyable read. Their deep love and understanding of plants is the backbone of these two books.
I always have trouble with historical fiction because I like to know what is fact and what is fiction. Consequently, I hauled out books of the his History of England during the reigns of George the First and his son Charles and lo and behold fact and fiction matched. Even the main character, whom I had considered fictional, turned out to be the real gardener to those in power--in fact there are flowers named after him. So...history became more real to me thanks to Philippa Gregory's engaging fiction.
