Take a step back in time to the 1930s in this semi-autobiographical
series that chronicles the daily life of an upper-class lady. Presented
as diary entries, this delightful volume delves into English countryside
life and a provincial lady's many mishaps.
In the depths of Devon, England, a disaster-prone, upper-class lady
lives with her uncommunicative husband, their young children, a French
nanny, the cook and a number of household servants. But this picture of
perfect 1930s family life isn't all that it seems. Their grand house is
never heated, the provincial lady is never dressed in the proper attire
and she's rarely ever seen the latest show. In her self-depricating
diary entries, the she records her domestic disasters and embarrassing
misadventures. The four novels collected in this wonderful volumes are
charming, witty, immensely honest, and sure to make you laugh.
