Cold Comfort Farm

20-year-old orphan Flora Poste is blessed with every virtue save that of being able to earn her own living. Casting around for suitable relatives with whom she can make her home, Flora alights on the mysterious Starkadders and heads down to darkest Sussex, where she is confronted by an exceptionally odd cast of characters. Stella Gibbons' deliciously witty parody has been delighting readers since 1932 and retains its original sunny charm in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatization starring Patricia Gallimore and Miriam Margolyes. Unabridged.
