| Although Frischmuth’s garden books give the appearance of a new genre for the novelist, they in fact represent a continuum of her literary tradition. Moreover, Frischmuth argues that the qualities essential for the successful gardener resemble those of the writer. The three volumes display the creativity and the characteristics unique to Frischmuth’s fiction, a free flowing interchange of the imaginative and the real, thereby creating a seamless connection between the human and the natural worlds. Frischmuth calls this her assoziative Nicht-Methode. Her garden books are one more splendid illustration of that distinct literary technique. | |
