She comes to an isolated house-cum-hospital in the Berkshires, run by a husband-and-wife team of doctors who are pioneering a cure for her condition. Warily, she enlists herself in the efforts of the Doctors Hall to “rectify the maternal environment,” both physical and psychological. In the meantime, she also discovers a long-forgotten walled garden on the spacious grounds, a place imbued with its own powers and pulls. As the doctors’ plans begin to crumble, Irene and her fellow patients make a desperate bid to harness the power of the garden for themselves—and face the unthinkable risks associated with such incalculable rewards.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith shades of Shirley Jackson and \u003ci\u003eRosemary's Baby, The Garden\u003c\/i\u003e delves into the territory of motherhood, childbirth, the mysteries of the female body, and the ways it has always been controlled and corralled.","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46447278915839,"sku":"9780593466544","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780593466544_s600x595.jpg?v=1775582603","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780593466544","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
