Christmas At Cold Comfort Farm by Stella Gibbons
A sharp, gently satirical tale set at a gloomy country farm at Christmastime, in which a practical, no-nonsense outsider descends on a household of eccentric relatives and, with brisk organization and dry humour, turns their melodramatic gloom into an unexpectedly cheerful, well-ordered holiday; the story playfully skewers rural-gothic clichés while celebrating common sense, small reconciliations and seasonal warmth.
