The Provincial Lady in Russia by E.M. Delafield

2.0

Like the other Provincial Lady books, this follows the carefully observed life and inner workings of a genteel British mother in the 1930s. Unlike the other books, this isn't actually funny. Her tales of early Soviet Russia are interesting at first, but tend to repeat themselves. This frank and detailed look at the intersection of British and Soviet cultures, and the equally frank debate about communism and equality, makes this an interesting document. It's not a great read, though.
