Take a quick look at the JASNA website where a select bibliography on “Austen’s Siblings in Fact and Fiction in JASNA Publications” has been posted ~ all in preparation for the upcoming AGM in Philadelphia, City of Brotherly Love. All the articles are in JASNA publications, many with online links.
Here is a taste to start your reading adventure:
Tthe facts: “Austen Brothers and Sisters” by Park Honan. Persuasions 10 (1988): 59-64.
The fiction: “Sisterhood and Friendship in Pride and Prejudice” by Deborah J. Knuth. Persuasions 11 (1989): 99-109.
Thanks for the heads up Deb. I shall have to be content in reading these and waiting for your blow by blow reporting of the event. We must get you on Twitter to you can send us instant updates!

I have been avoiding Twitter like the plague – the need to be sitting here for yet ANOTHER computer obsession, I cannot handle! [though it is a fabulous idea for reporting at the AGM- hmmm…]
Thanks for visiting!
