The Poison Diaries
The Poison Diaries
By The Duchess of Northumberland
2006, Pavilion
The Poison Garden is the journal of Weed, an orphan who is apprenticed to an evil apothecary and discovers he is one of the few people who can talk to plants. Weed’s relationship with the poisonous plants found in the apothecary’s walled garden leads to a dramatic ending. The story is accompanied by Weed’s botanical notes and sketches, as well as by illustrations that reveal the true personalities of plants including belladonna and mandrake. The Poison Diaries is illustrated by Colin Stimpson, who has worked on some of Hollywood’s leading animated films.
