Description

In this week’s episode, Amy and Kim discuss Stella Gibbons’ Nightingale Wood, a sophisticated and charmingly unorthodox 1930s-era Cinderella story chockablock with wry humor and romance, and even some saucy sexcapades! Learn more about Gibbons, who was so loved by critics that one even, infuriatingly, suggested “Stella Gibbons” was probably a pen name used by the male writer Evelyn Waugh. Her novel Cold Comfort Farm was adapted by the BBC into a 1995 film. For episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.com Follow us on instagram @lostladiesoflit. Follow Kim on twitter @kaskew.
