An audio treat for Janeites
Alert Janeite Chris sent us a link to a radio play on BBC Radio 4 this Tuesday at 2:15 p.m. called “A City Full of Swindlers.” It might not sound like it has a Jane Austen connection, but read the description:
Cassandra Austen narrates the shocking story of her aunt’s arrest and imprisonment for stealing a piece of lace, a story which reveals Georgian Bath to be a far less decorous place than it appears in her sister Jane’s novels.
Oooh! That sounds good. You can listen live online and it looks like they archive for seven days after broadcast.
