Critic reviews

“Frequently indiscreet and occasionally acerbic or heartless, Jane Austen’s letters are always engaging. Fiona Shaw gives a sensitive reading.” (Daily Telegraph)

“Fiona Shaw as Jane Austen babbles like a little brook of a petit-point life in Hampshire and Bath.” (The Independent)

I most liked Jane Austen’s wit and humour, such a joy, as it is in her books. The selection of her letters is well chosen and beautifully read by the narrator.
