À propos de cet audio

The Thing About Austen is a podcast about Jane Austen's world — the people, objects, and culture that shape Austen's fiction. Come for the historical context and stay for the literary shenanigans. Think of us as your somewhat cheeky tour guides to the life and times of Jane Austen.© The Thing About Austen Podcast.

LOVE!

I absolutely love this podcast! I just started listening maybe 3 weeks ago and I adore just about every episode! The hosts are hilarious and cheerful! I don't have any friends who read Jane Austen so this podcast really gives me so much joy in being able to feel like I'm connecting with like minded people. I learn so much and laugh just as much! Highly recommend to any Austen fan!
