This week Zoe Wheddon and Julia Golding discuss what would Jane do about modern friendship, look back at Jane's friendships in real life and in her fiction, as well as swap Jane Austen news and award this episode's Lizzy and Lady Catherine.
Would Jane fit in with Taylor Swift's pack or a Facebook fan group? What role does messaging (or old fashioned letter writing) play in creating strong female networks of friends? And is it friendship rather than romance that is the key to understanding what is really going on in Jane's novels? Have a listen to find out.
This episode mentions Zoe's new book, JaneAusten's Best Friend: The Life and Influence of Martha Lloyd
