The result is a gorgeous, unusual and inspirational commonplace book, full of wit, whimsy and stunning photographs. Jane's fresh and thoughtful take on life will make you look at the world with new eyes.

THE GENTLE ART OF DOMESTICITY is a heavenly feast, celebrating everything that is wonderful about life.
