A mystery is solved
March 20, 2007
Alert Janeite Laura solved the mystery that she wrote to us about last week: was the President’s ex-wife reading a Jane Austen novel on last week’s episode of 24? She managed to get a screencap of the book: it was the Everyman’s Library edition of Sense and Sensibility. Click on the thumbnail for a bigger version of the screencap.

Thanks! I saw it and immediately rewound it (much to my husband’s and son’s dismay) because I was sure it was an Austen novel.
Not sure it says much for Austen’s ability to calm and soothe one’s mind.
Me too – rewound it much to my husband’s and son’s dismay, LOL!
Perhaps Martha was reading Willoughby’s letter at the time?
No Martha or Aaron on last night’s show, so no book.
Oh! I have that edition too!
