Jane Austen and a Women’s Right to Refuse
Hello Friends! April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. So, as your resident ultra-feminist, I would like to take my time this month to talk about how Jane Austen inserted themes of women’s empowerment and sexual violence into her novels and why the things she talked about over 200 years ago are still relevant.
I’m also a regular contributor to the Always Austen Group Blog! Come check out the other Austenesque authors in the group, their books and projects. There are lots of fun historical facts about Jane Austen’s England, discussions about writing and publishing, plus regular giveaways! Who doesn’t love free stuff :)
