About this listen

Based on the theme "Connection", the second year of the Jane Austen Literacy Foundation short story writing competition received a phenomenal response, with entries from 29 countries. Three finalist stories were chosen by the Jane Austen Literacy Foundation judging panel and published online for a public vote to choose the winner. The winning story, "Mother & Daughter: A Last Walk" by Stephanie Percival, beautifully captures a moment of connection that touched our audience. "His Back" by Isidora Cortes-Monroy and "The Imaginary Friend" by Lucy Beresford were equally loved and complete this set of three very different but enjoyable stories.

Beautifully read by Alison Larkin, award-winning narrator of The Complete Novels of Jane Austen and Jane Austen Literacy Foundation Ambassador, all of the proceeds from the sale of this audiobook will be donated to the Jane Austen Literacy Foundation. Run by volunteers, the Foundation was started by Jane Austen's family in 2014 to connect through literacy and support literacy in developing communities.

Really enjoyed these three pieces. It was a beautifully executed performance of well-written works. And all for the promotion of literacy. I look forward to the next round.
