Left Bank brings back Winter Lyceum
In the last decade of her life, Welty recounted memories of that lost garden to a local garden designer, Susan Haltom — a conversation that sparked an unprecedented effort to bring the garden back to life. From the beginning, she wove images of southern flowers and gardens into her writing, although few outside the author's personal circle knew that these were drawn from her own passionate connection to the garden in her backyard. Left Bank Books will launch its fourth annual Winter Lyceum, a series of informal Sunday afternoon talks, with Eudora Welty's Garden, a talk by landscape historian and author Jane Roy Brown, Sunday, Feb. By the time of the author's death in 2001, the garden's restoration was well underway (it was completed in 2004) and slowly revealing its profound place in the writer's artistic life — a place, Brown explains, of sanctuary and inspiration. Brown's talk will focus on iconic American writer Eudora Welty and her garden, telling their story against the backdrop of some of the most significant events of the 20th century. In 2006, both house and garden were named National Historic Landmarks and opened to the public as a museum.
