Presented as diary entries, these delightful novels delve 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 lady records her domestic disasters and embarrassing misadventures. E. M. Dalafield’s books are charming, witty, immensely honest, and sure to make you laugh.
