About this listen

In this episode, we dive into Miss Austen, the new PBS series that puts Cassandra Austen at the center of the story, instead of focusing on Jane. It’s about this older sister deciding what to do with the hundreds of private letters Jane wrote to various friends and family. We explore the mystery of why Cassandra destroyed most of those letters and the theories behind her choice. This is a story about memory, protection, and the powerful love of sisterhood.
