«La hija de Robert Poste» is the comic novel by Stella Gibbons, published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback (360 pages, in Spanish).
Flora Poste, an orphan, goes to live with her relatives, the Starkadders, at Cold Comfort Farm, an English rural farm. There she finds an eccentric and dysfunctional family, and decides to put things in order with irony and practical sense. The novel parodies the rural and romantic stories of the era.
Novel originally published as «Cold Comfort Farm» in 1932, with translation by José C. Vales. It is part of the «Cold Comfort Farm» series and received the Prix Femina-Vie Heureuse.
For readers of satire and British humor, and for those who enjoy classic novels set in the English countryside.
Stella Dorothea Gibbons was an English author, journalist, and poet. She established her reputation with her first novel, Cold Comfort Farm (1932), which has been reprinted many times. Although she was active as a writer for half a century, none of her later 22 novels or other literary works—which included a sequel to Cold Comfort Farm—achieved the same critical or popular success. Much of her work was long out of print before a modest revival in the 21st century.
