Autora: #StellaGibbons ✒️📖✒️
«Hay necesidades físicas y emocionales que solo podemos satisfacer interactuando con otra persona. Lo difícil es... encontrar a la persona apropiada para ello.»
Lese den Roman "Westwood" von Stella Gibbons. Wurde in einer Zeit geschrieben, in der schmale 👄 Lippen (bei weißen Engländerinnen) die Norm waren oder auch das Ideal. Also vor dem Lippen-Botox-Wahn.😉
"A strong dark face, and untidy dark curls hanging about her shoulders. Her mouth👄 was too full"
Leider wurde der Roman bisher nicht ins Deutsche übersetzt.
The Times: "Stella Gibbons is the Jane Austen of the twentieth century."

You can sense the simmering resentment.
#StellaGibbons also used porridge to signify emotional angst in #ColdComfortFarm, with the pot bubbling furiously to suggest Judith Starkadder's possibly incestuous feelings towards her wayward son, Seth.
I came across the 1968 television adaptation on youtube while writing this. A pleasure for later.
