«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."

Cold Comfort Farm – Jill's Reads

@samuelpepys

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.

Just bought a Kindle book by #StellaGibbons which sounds just wonderful. Her final novel. As a huge fan of COLD COMFORT FARM I can't wait to enjoy this with a cup of tea.
