Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The writer
Q: Did that kind of aspect, that anonymity, give her a degree of creative freedom in how she was writing?
It provided some creative freedom, allowing her to navigate her lower gentry status without the societal pressures of fame, but also limited her recognition as an author.
The writer
Q: What was the risk of putting your name to a novel in Austen's day?
The risk was significant due to the low reputation of novels, which were seen as a distraction from a woman's responsibilities, exposing women to ridicule and criticism for writing, yet also providing an outlet for their views.
