A friend lived near Basildon Park, which played Netherfield in the 2005 P+P. I toured the home, and it was AMAZING. Since so much of the property was used in the 2005 version, the house had an exhibit celebrating the movie. (Basildon Park is NOT mentioned in the article.)

What I love most is this ending quote: "Therefore, this 1940 incarnation is a valued member of the World War II adaptation club; it proves that Austen’s book, much like Shakespeare’s, or Bronte’s, Baum’s, or Mitchell’s, can become whatever popular culture needs it to be."

Published posthumously, #JaneAusten's Northanger Abbey and Persuasion were published together in a four volume set on December 20, 1817. NA was finished in 1803 and is a send-up of gothic novels. Persuasion is Austen's last completed novel. Her family retained copyright of nearly 1800 copies which sold rapidly. Later editions of both novels were published independently. #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon
