A unique collaboration from two of the United States’s leading artists, the author Jamaica Kincaid and the visual artist Kara Walker, An Encyclopedia of Gardening for Colored Children brings readers on a journey through the colonial history of plants, exploring fruits, flowers, and other figures from our botanical world.
Kincaid offers quicksilver texts for each entry, and Walker illustrates them with provocative, enthralling, multilayered watercolours. Kincaid and Walker honour plant life with honesty as well as wit, offering an important look at how legacies of empire and slavery shape where and why we grow certain crops.
An Encyclopedia of Gardening for Colored Children is published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux | RRP £23.99
