No-one could have dreamed that all our cultivations and plans were being scrutinized, as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. To our mind few gardeners could ever consider the possibility of the utter destruction of other peoples’ plots. And yet, across the small and intimate space of this supposedly communal council garden, minds most assuredly inferior to ours regarded our plot with envious eyes, and slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against it…”
