PRAISE FOR THE DIARY OF A PROVINCIAL LADY
“I came to The Diary of a Provincial Lady in the early 1970s. I finished the novel in one sitting, leaving the children unbathed, dogs unwalked, a husband unfed, and giving alternate cries of joy and recognition throughout. How was it that anyone living a comparatively sheltered, upper-class life 40 years ago could think and behave so exactly like me?” Jilly Cooper, The Guardian

THE PROVINCIAL LADY GOES FURTHER
“Truly laugh-out-loud funny, as the unnamed diarist chronicles the humdrum every day details of life. Her life involves things mine do not (hiring servants, for one), but her feelings of inadequacy as a wife, parent, housekeeper, neighbour, friend, and citizen really hit home with me and make me howl in recognition. Would love to meet her at one of those dinner parties she is always attending, where she always feels slightly out of place.” Tracy

THE PROVINCIAL LADY IN RUSSIA
Features three classic reports from 1930s Russia in a specially designed edition for kindle. E. M. Delafield’s insightful writing will intrigue and delight you.

“I came to The Diary of a Provincial Lady in the early 1970s. I finished the novel in one sitting, leaving the children unbathed, dogs unwalked, a husband unfed, and giving alternate cries of joy and recognition throughout. How was it that anyone living a comparatively sheltered, upper-class life 40 years ago could think and behave so exactly like me?” Jilly Cooper, The Guardian

“Loving this series--just discovered! This is the first of several written in the 1930s by a British woman. I'm on the second one currently, and I'm laughing aloud. Perfect for reading just before bed. A fascinating picture of life before WWII in Britain--when "middle class" meant something completely different--tutors, cooks, housekeepers . . . and an allowance for the "little woman." Our heroine in the Diary series struggles to not involve her husband (who is indifferent to anything domestic) in her day-to-day trials, and eighty years later, those trials still ring true” Sallie

“It takes a truly talented mind to take the day to day life of a country house wife and convert it into a journal of light satire and human observation. It is a little wonder why The Diary was a bestseller when it was published in 1933 and is still so popular. The book truly is delightful and full of interesting characters.” Vipula

“An amusing glimpse into the diary of a very simpleminded and clumsy Provincial Lady, her careless and grumbly husband Robert, her too truthful children and her hopelessly pretending neighborhood. It reads almost like a forerunner to "Bridget Jones' Diary" with its endearing scenes of everydaylife, not-too-practical musings on personal economy and unlucky efforts to dye one's hair.” Rikke
