A book of First Class stamps diltiazem verapamil
Perhaps when Cold Comfort Farm is less fresh in my mind I’ll be able to come back to Webb and appreciate her properly. In a way, Gibbons has sparked my interest. Parody is often a form of flattery, after all, and Cold Comfort Farm seems affectionate as well as scathing. There was something there that interested and delighted Gibbons, as well as plenty that made her want to laugh. Sadly, we’ll never know what Webb made of the book, since she died aged just 47 in 1927, five years before it was published. But what we can say with certainty about Webb’s legacy, love or hate her writing, is that she inspired a masterpiece. There are worse things to be responsible for than Cold Comfort Farm.
