231) In Search of Jane Austen 4.0

A few things to disagree with but moving snap shots of Anne Sharp, Harris Bigg-Wither, Francis Austen, and surprisingly Mary Austen. I'd not wild about regency life not connected to JA/JAFF but I'll try to read the first book in the series(not related to Jane Austen) and any future books.

Interesting idea. Too crude and a bit grim for me. MA

I only read the Jane Austen essay, although I hope to go back to this book in the future.

"I suspect that Jane Austen, so private, so enigmatic and contradictory, went through life as if she were the possessor of a clandestine happiness. Like her heroines, she saw things more clearly than other people and so pitied their cloudiness."

Interesting using a peculiar plot device twice. While one character's reaction I understand, the other ??? I look forward to "Bingley's story" next year. Hopefully these two will have a good bit of minor character time.
