Question
Note to moderator: be sure to say “county,” not “country.” In a novel set in this region, a character blames his family's alcoholism on "the shadow of Kilmar," a rock shaped like a devil's hand. The subtitle “a novel of” this region appears on each entry in a 12-novel series that took over 55 years to complete; in that series, an army officer who returns home to this region after being injured in the American Revolution marries Demelza Carne and feuds with the industrialist George Warleggan. In a novel set in this (*) county, Mary Yellan is kidnapped by a Druid-obsessed albino vicar who leads a group of ship wreckers. Perception of this county's culture is heavily influenced by adaptations of Winston Graham's Poldark novels. Literary tourists can visit Jamaica Inn author Daphne du Maurier’s home in, for 10 points, what southwesternmost English county? ■END■
