About this listen
Sydney Owenson's best known novel, "The Wild Irish Girl". kicked off a merchandising revolution in the 1800s. Dr Devoney Looser from Arizona State University, tells Amy about Owenson's childhood as the daughter of a comic actor, her rise to literary fame, her married life as Lady Morgan, and her legacy as a proto-feminist.
Lord Byron, Percy Shelley, and Jane Austen all wrote about about Owenson, so why has so been been largely forgotten by modern readers?
