Secret Garden - Burnett

Summary
There is another garden, in India. These are the women of that garden, over two generations, Mary's mother and ayah, and both their two daughters. In the end, I'm afraid, this is only where the story begins, but I hope it opens up the original story and takes us out into the world beyond the secret gardens.
I'm afraid the closest I've been to India is the websites I used researching this, so if there are any glaring botanical, linguistic or cultural errors, let me know and I'll fix them.

Normally, original main characters in fanfiction are anathema to me. But this was very sweet, and very worth the read.

I never thought about the other gardens, about India and why Mrs Lennox could forget her child so completely. Now I shan't need to; it is already said for me.

Gorgeous and truly transformitive. Another country and another garden. Fabulous evocative language and a rich expansion of the universe of the story.
