Free podcasts of a Novel by a Jane Austen Contemporary, Mrs. A. Kendall
Intro to The Lady’s Magazine and Derwent Priory, Or Memoirs of an Orphan, in a Series of Letters by Mrs A. Kendall, from the Lady’s Magazine of 1796 -97. Click on the following link narrated by Ms. Greenfield to listen to the podcasts.
Narrated by Deborah Greenfield (click on this link to access the site).
This is a serialized free audiobook of Derwent Priory, a romantic novel from 1796 by a Mrs A. Kendall, a contemporary of Jane Austen. It first appeared in an important periodical of the day, The Lady’s Magazine, which was instrumental in encouraging women to write, including Jane Austen, and later Charlotte Bronte. The podcast also explores other Lady’s Magazine material and episodes appear every Tuesday. Several are already up and episode 6 is followed by an interview with Lady’s Magazine and Jane Austen expert Dr Jennie Batchelor from Kent University.
Note: Once Derwent Priory is complete, it will be published as an audiobook, and the podcast will go on hiatus.
