BtZ42 pockets of love.

[Mark Kohut]

p. 23...'but we would have garden love, and garden joy" from
Hooker......reminds me of the spaces of human connection P puts into this,
and other books. Here, a tangential  kinship with the sandbag warren and
the girls and their feeders and with the little anarchic spaces in the
other books, where a love as agape, even just as kindness can exist but
here overtly connected to the love connections...."How Slothrop's garden
grows"....a list of a garden of flowers including love-in-idleness, one of
literature's more famous flowers.

A garden in the midst of war kind of Love can apply to the most famous,
longest love story in GR, Roger and Jessica's perhaps.
