The first book to investigate Jane Austen's popular significance
today, Everybody's Jane considers why Austen matters to amateur
readers, how they make use of her novels, what they gain from
visiting places associated with her, and why they create works of
fiction and nonfiction inspired by her novels and life. The voices
of everyday readers emerge from both published and unpublished
sources, including interviews conducted with literary tourists and
archival research into the founding of the Jane Austen Society of
North America and the exceptional Austen collection of Alberta
Hirshheimer Burke of Baltimore. Additional topics include new
Austen portraits; portrayals of Austen, and of Austen fans, in film
and fiction; and hybrid works that infuse Austen's writings with
horror, erotica, or explicit Christianity. Everybody's Jane will
appeal to all those who care about Austen and will change how we
think about the importance of literature and reading today.
