Résumé
Who were the women writers that inspired Jane Austen ? Why have they all but disappeared from our bookshelves ? When Rebecca Romney discovered a clothbound edition of Evelina by Frances Burney, she was delighted to find a novel cherished by Jane Austen. Inspired by the connection between the two writers, she revisited Austen's books with a new lens, picking out clues sprinkled throughout her works that pointed to the writers she had admired.
Romney noticed that while male writers like Shakespeare and Milton still dominate our shelves, the works of Austen's favourite female authors, such as Frances Burney and Ann Radcliffe, have all but vanished. This ignited a new mission for Romney : she needed to collect Jane Austen's bookshelf. Delve into the lives and works of these female writers, and explore their disappearance from history in this page-turning literary adventure.
