A comedic allegory for our future, where language and nature collide.
What happens when you fall in love with your next-door neighbor? You peer through a hole in the fence and eventually climb over. Sybil, a member of The Good-Hearted Gardeners, allows her lover, Demo, to join their Society for Well-Meaning Efforts for the Betterment of Language and the Salvation of the Planet. It's funded by MI5, who ask them to monetize and weaponize the English language.
Soon they discover that English is even more widespread than anyone thought. Even the birds and the fish, the cows and the kangaroos can speak it - when they choose. With climate change and technology gone mad, can the headlong rush to extinction be halted? Good-Hearted Gardeners is a thought-provoking and quirky read for those interested in literary satire and social commentary.
