Cold Comfort Farm: Difference between revisions

** Flora kicks this to the curb however, persuading pretty much all but one of the Starkadders to pursue more fulfilling lives elsewhere.

* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: Yes, oddly, the novel is actually set in a projected future with videophones and references to the "Anglo-Nicaraguan wars of '46". This aspect has little impact on the plot and is easy to forget - but it's probably why Flora's love interest has his own plane.

* [[Upperclass Twit]]: Richard Hawk-Monitor. Flora dismisses Adam's fears that he intends to seduce and abandon Elfine with the consideration that "Like most other ideas, the idea would simply not have entered his head."

* [[World of Ham]]: Played for laughs, mostly, though there's a few more sombre indications of what their "rich inner lives" are costing the Starkadders.
