#JALetters This October 1798 letter to Cassandra, rife with the details that concerned travelers in her time, reminds us as well that horses were indispensable, and that Austen and her mother had access to this prized species and a carriage thanks to her brother Edward's wealth.
Some #Emma book covers symbolize the heroine by means of the parasol or umbrella. The Wordsworth Classics edition prompted us to search how many scenes reference an umbrella (none mention a parasol). It's three and they're tied to important moments in the plot. Do you know which?
We love adaptations and translations of Jane Austen's novels: Hanabusa Yōko's romance anime of #Emma does both, and the cover itself is irresistible!
