Jane Austen at home (2017)
Book
Published
Lucy Worsley follows Austen from the Steventon rectory to Bath, Southampton, and the cottage at Chawton. The changing households make the practical conditions of writing visible: who had rooms or money of her own, and how family arrangements could make time and space available. Its emphasis on domestic life makes it a good companion to a more conventional biography.
