When the editor of Time and Tide wanted some light "middles", preferably in serial form, E. M. Delafield promised to think of something to submit'. It was thus, in 1930, that her most popular and enduring work Diary of a Provincial Lady was written. This largely autobiographical novel which took the form of a journal of the life of an upper-middle class Englishwoman living mostly in a Devon village of the 1930s is a humorous account of a house-wife and a mother who juggles her life at home and yet goes on to successfully publish her first book. Excerpt: "November 7th.—Plant the indoor bulbs. Just as I am in the middle of them, Lady Boxe calls. I say, untruthfully, how nice to see her, and beg her to sit down while I just finish the bulbs. Lady B. makes determined attempt to sit down in armchair where I have already placed two bulb-bowls and the bag of charcoal, is headed off just in time, and takes the sofa." (The Diary of a Provincial Lady) E. M. Delafield (1890-1943) was a prolific English author who is best known for her autobiographical works like Zella Sees Herself, The Provincial Lady Series etc. which look at the lives of upper-middle class Englishwomen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourists in all the Intourist hotels in all the principal towns of Soviet Russia exchange the same fragments of conversation. "Have you done Moscow yet?" "No, I'm going there to-morrow night. I came in by Odessa. I've done Kharkov and Rostov and Kiev." "Ah, then you're going out by sea from Leningrad. Unless you're flying from Moscow?" "No, I shall be going by sea. Have you done Odessa and the south?" "No, I've done the Caucasus. You should do the Caucasus. What is Odessa like?" "Odessa is delightful. The hotel at Rostov was good except for the cockroaches. The food was bad at Kharkov.' "Ah, there was a Frenchman here yesterday who had just come from Kharkov, and hesaid the food wasn't good." And at this gratifying coincidence everybody looks pleased. Sometimes it is a little like the survivors of a shipwreck meeting on a fragment of desert island. "Are you still all right for soap?" "Yes, I shall just last out till Kiev. What about you?" "Oh, I'm all right. I brought a great deal. But my ink is pretty low." "There's an American lady who can let you have ink. She gave me some in Leningrad and she's coming on here. She had safety-pins too."
