READ ON!

These are landscape stories, written by a fellow, Christopher Janus, who had adventures in and was inspired by the landscape.

You may ask what is the landscape? To which he would answer, “When we get out of bed in the morning and put our feet on the floor, we are in the landscape”. What? My apartment, my flat, my house, my town, my city? To which he would simply answer, “They all sit in the landscape”.

Christopher Janus, CJ, studied landscape architecture in university and graduated; but they did not teach him about landscape. He learned landscape from the hardest, most unfortunate events in his life.

“The Landscape Architect” is the title of this series of fictional autobiographies wherein CJ describes his unusual international landscape experiences and his worldwide career. The series reveals the twists and turns in his professional landscape architecture development. But the series explores further. CJ, drawing upon his fine arts history, becomes obsessed with experiences in nature and the landscape beyond the five senses. Beyond the five senses? The paranormal? You decide.

CJ chases nature, its landscape and plants to their existential roots. He describes his interactions with cultures, landscapes, gardens and plants of the world—where the unexpected and downright strange become daily facts of life.
