Book of the Month: Cold Comfort Farm

Just finished reading this novel by Stella Gibbons. It was a lovely read, not too taxing and really sweet and humorous. It's a Penguins essential book..which basically means...you should read it.
The main protagonist, fashionable and urban Flora Poste, finds herself at a relatives shabby farm. She quickly get to work on the residents including the comically named cows. She turns their world upside down, remaining every bit the lady in the meantime.This description may not sell it, but I really do advise it if you are looking for a light read. It's not too light though, just right. Cold Comfort Farm is worth a look.
