| In 2020, Olivia Laing began to restore a walled garden in Suffolk, an overgrown Eden of unusual plants. The work drew them into an exhilarating investigation of paradise and its long association with gardens. Moving between real and imagined gardens, from Milton’s Paradise Lost to Derek Jarman's Dungeness, from a wartime sanctuary in Italy to an aristocratic pleasure ground funded by slavery, Laing interrogates the sometimes shocking cost of making paradise on earth - and finds utopian outposts amid the flower beds. The Garden Against Time illuminates the pleasures and possibilities of gardens: not as a place to hide from the world but as a site of encounter and discovery.
