The dramatic and historic Kings Walden gardens are the setting for author Bridget Hilton-Barber’s best selling book Garden of My Ancestors. The author lives in the area and is available for a gentle wander around the gardens with a glass of wine to talk about her book, life and the universe. Blurb on the book: Sex, drugs and gardening. That’s the spirit of Garden of My Ancestors, a story about a family farm set in the wild and misty reaches of Limpopo. The farm belongs to an infamous family whose ancestors settled here more than a century ago. This is the African tale of a wonderful family where White Mischief meets magic realism. Garden of My Ancestors is sad, tragic, funny and philosophical. * The book is published by Penguin Books and was short listed for the University of Johannesburg Creative Writing Prize 2008 as well as the Jenny Crwys-Williams Best Non-Fiction Prize 2008.
