[Tacitus Jones @ElmoOfTheApes]

Out of the Silent Planet by C. S. Lewis (Pan Books 1960) cover by Stephen Richard Boldero. First in Lewis' Cosmic trilogy with a decent cover from Boldero, reminds me a bit of Richard Powers' work.

Plants can run their roots right back into the cool soil between the stones finding every drop of moisture even in a dry season and can open their faces to the sun on the wall front. #Gardening
