As a Mormon child, the author slept under the two outer panels of Bosch's Garden of Delights. After discovering the existence of the central panel in the Prado, she was drawn to write about her fascination with the entire triptych and the connections to her personal life, the "relationship with nature, the divide between religion and spirituality, and the question of how to preserve wilderness."--Booklist review.

Work Description
"Seized by the beauty and mystery of Hieronymus Bosch's fifteenth-century Flemish masterpiece, The Garden of Delights, Terry Tempest Williams focuses her gaze on his medieval triptych as she would on a natural landscape. She carries us into the world of Bosch's painting, uncovering the connections between his vision, the world it mirrors, and contemporary life."--BOOK JACKET.
