Witty satire on 1930s rural British eccentricities.

If you're in the mood for a chuckle wrapped in the English countryside, "Cold Comfort Farm" is your ticket to entertainment. Gibbons' ability to skewer the dramatic tropes of rural sagas with her sharp wit will leave you amused and perhaps even a little enlightened. Flora's interactions with the Starkadders are not just comical; they're a masterclass in satire that's stood the test of time.

Winner of the 1933 Femina Vie Heureuse Prize, Cold Comfort Farm is a wickedly funny portrait of British rural life in the 1930s. Flora Poste, a recently orphaned socialite, moves in with her country relatives, the gloomy Starkadders of Cold Comfort Farm, and becomes enmeshed in a web of violent emotions, despair, and scheming, until Flora manages to set things right.
