(Special Request) Cold Comfort Farm by Stella Gibbons

From James Nicoll@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 6 13:57:33 2025

old Comfort Farm (Cold Comfort Farm, volume 1) by Stella Gibbons

A young orphan guilts an invitation out of rustic relatives, whose
lives she swiftly improves.

This is science fiction, although the movie based on this novel is
not.

I also reviewed the movie but it's not SF.

The text under Ned Stark's image is utterly unreadable on my
22 inch screen.

That better?
