Critics Review

“A botanical elixir for all of our aching hearts.”–Superhero of Love Podcast“A warm, lushly sensitive memoir … restorative.”–MPR News“Comforting.”–Dallas Morning News“If you’re dealing with heartache, Rebecca Winn knows how to ease the pain … If you’re wondering what role you have in this world, Rebecca Winn can help you unearth it … If you’re looking for wonder, oh my, Rebecca Winn knows where you need to immerse yourself.”–fyi50+“Intimate and wise … Readers enduring a rough patch in life will benefit from Winn’s empathy and hard-won wisdom.”–Publishers Weekly“Rebecca Winn is an artist with words. Her book, One Hundred Daffodils, proves the underestimated power of beauty to heal our deepest wounds. Using her garden, nature, and a delightful smattering of wild creatures, she weaves her midlife catastrophe into a beautifully written story of raw vulnerability, courage, and transformation. I was totally captivated and entranced.”–Arielle Ford, author of Turn Your Mate Into Your Soulmate“Rebecca Winn’s quiet reflections here remind us that the restorative powers of the natural world are elusive, enigmatic: so often, they take us far and away from ourselves, all the while rooting us firmly in who we are and where we are. Kudos to her for tracking these ambiguities with such grace and clarity.”–Akiko Busch, author of How toDisappear“When women share the truth about life and loss, hearts can begin to heal and hope is restored. Readers will embrace that gift in Rebecca Winn’s comforting and lovely memoir on beginning again.”–Sarah Ban Breathnach, author of Simple Abundance: 365 Days to a Balanced and Joyful Life
