    On today’s episode, host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss Meir Shalev’s My Wild Garden, a love letter to gardening that wends its way through foliage and flowers with a sweet, affectionate tone. Shaleve is a passionate gardener in Jezreel Valley in Israel, and Arthur helps listeners realize it’s just as much a rumination on life as it is about tending a garden.
