“It is a truth universally acknowledged…”

Susan Ferrier’s 2nd novel 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 (1824) starts with a nod & wink to Jane Austen’s 𝘗𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘫𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘦 (1813). In 1818, Blackwood’s paid £150 for 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦; it is a testament to Ferrier’s popularity that they paid £1000 for 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦

Susan Ferrier (1782–1854) was born #OTD, 7 Sept. Her 3 novels – 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦, & 𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘺 – are vivid & humorous accounts of Scottish society. Often compared to her contemporary Jane Austen, Ferrier’s satires are much more vicious…

A quotation from Jane Austen

We are of each an unsocial, taciturn disposition, unwilling to speak, unless we expect to say something that will amaze the whole room, and be handed down to posterity with all of the eclat of a proverb.

Jane Austen (1775-1817) English author
Pride and Prejudice, ch. 18 [Elizabeth] (1813)

Are there any fans of #BritishDrama here? I'm interested in chatting. I'm a big fan. I enjoy the writing, characters and acting. Some of my favourite older #TV shows are #Broadchurch, #LifeonMars and more recently #Endeavour, #Shetland, #Sherwood, KarenPirie,#LineofDuty and #Manhunt. I don't just like #CrimeDramas, I also enjoy #HistoricalDramas like #Belgravia and most adaptations of #JaneAusten and others. I also like #ScienceFiction and #Fantasy adaptations like #Sandman, #GoodOmens and #doctorwho (my favourite doctor being #DavidTennant).

I could extend my list of favourite authors by listing those deceased authors for whom, if an authenticated "lost manuscript" surfaced, I'd be first in the line to buy:

#JaneAusten
#CharlesDickens
#DianaWynneJones
#ENesbit
#GeorgeOrwell
#DorothyLSayers
#CliffordSimak
#JackVance
