New novel inspired by Jane Austen
April 23, 2006
Kate Allan (who comments here at AustenBlog occasionally) has written a book with a fictional story inspired by Jane Austen. The heroine of Perfidy and Perfection is a woman who writes and hides it from her family, as did Jane Austen (not her immediate family, but nieces and nephews were not let in on the secret until several years after her first publication).
The novel site has a competition to win a copy of one of Kate’s books and she also hosted an online launch party, which because the Editrix spent the weekend lying about crocheting a reticule we neglected to post in time, but one can still read the archives, and we dare say post a comment if so inclined.
