What this book is about
The newly orphaned Flora Poste descends on her eccentric rural relatives at Cold Comfort Farm, armed with common sense and a determination to sort everyone out. Stella Gibbons's 1932 British comedy classic is a wicked parody of melodramatic rural fiction, delivering wit, warmth, and gleefully absurdist characters. One of the funniest and most quotable British novels of the twentieth century.
