The Diary of a Provincial Lady |
Four books in one, absolutely fascinating, written in diary form in the 1930s and taking us to America and up to WWII. It gives a true feeling of what life was all about: all is nice, do not grumble and do not think of yourself. The later life quite reminiscent of my time as an evacuee in Oxford with 3 elderly ladies. Dry, caustic and very funny, it left me wanting to know more at the end.
