Alert Janeites Cate and Chris let us know that audio excerpts from Jane’s Fame: How Jane Austen Conquered the World by Claire Harman, read by Alice Krige (Lady Russell in the most recent Persuasion film and of course WE ARE THE BORG QUEEN, INDIVIDUALIST SCUM), are available from BBC Radio.

We should have a review of the book very soon. In the meantime, read this article by Ms. Harman from The Age, sent by Alert Janeite Lisa, and just try to guess what the Editrix will have to say about it. 😉
