Synopsis

The Letters of JANE AUSTEN performed by Fiona Shaw CBE“Frequently indiscreet and occasionally acerbic or heartless, Jane Austen’s letters are always engaging. Fiona Shaw gives a sensitive reading” (Daily Telegraph)Born in 1775, Jane Austen was the youngest of seven children.  It is to her elder sister Cassandra that most of her surviving letters are written. Candid and wickedly indiscreet, they provide a fascinating insight into the life of one of England’s great novelists.The Letters of LORD BYRON performed by Robert Powell “If you want to see into man’s soul, start with this self-portrait.  It’s magnificent”  (The Guardian)Born in 1788, the son of the profligate "Mad Jack" Byron and succeeded to the title in 1798 moving to the family seat of Newstead Abbey.  He attended Harrow School and Trinity College, Cambridge where he proved to be a poor scholar, preferring boxing, the low life and poetry, publishing his first volume of poems in 1806.The Letters of CHARLOTTE BRONTE performed by Imogen Stubbs“These provide a welcome addition to our collection of Bronteana... the reading is sympathetic and lively and makes most compelling listening.” (Bronte Society)The brief and tragic life of Charlotte Bronte (1816-1855) is told through the beautiful and passionate letters written by Charlotte to her best friend Ellen Nussey. Also available as part of the CLASSIC LETTERS & JOURNALS BOX SET, a seven-volume edition containing some of the most fascinating journals and letters to have been written in the last two hundred and fifty years.© & ? 2022 Mr Punch Audiobooks Ltd
