The Gardener's Surprise

Hardcover
Recommended retail price · tax included

Andrew has a hobby: gardening.

As soon as he is offered a new job that will allow him to move into a house with a large garden, he does not hesitate for a second and he accepts. But… What if work interferes with what you like best in the world?

Although he works as a train mechanic, Andrew’s real passion is gardening: he loves flowers so much that his little apartment is full of plants of all shapes and sizes. When a company offers him a new job with a good salary and a house with a big garden, Andrew accepts without hesitation, unaware that maybe he’s putting at risk things much more important than his job or his hobby…

The Gardener’s Surprise is a moving story about the importance of our beliefs in our daily lives, as well as a celebration of indulging in personal passions as an excellent way of achieving happiness.
