Laurel Ann at Austenprose wonders who the book is really targeting - certainly not those who lack a sense of macabre humor and who revere Jane's novels, and certainly not the zombie lover who is looking for more gruesome action. ...

Marilyn Brant recently blogged about a party she’d attended celebrating Jane Austen 234th birthday. She said:
One of the big highlights of the event was getting to hear “The Bingley Sisters” (aka, Molly Philosophos and Liz Philosophos Cooper …) advise their brother Charles (that would be the famed, Mr. Bingley of Pride & Prejudice) [...]

Every month, I'd estimate that we receive about five books based on Jane Austen's life or books, and most of them are pretty, well, dreadful. Of course, I'm not talking about the sublime "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," which...

I ran across this bit whilst reading Northanger Abbey with my budding Janeite:"Although our productions have afforded more extensive and unaffected pleasure than those of any other literary corporation in the world, no species of composition has been so much decried. From pride, ignorance, or fashion, our foes are almost as many as our readers. And while the abilities of the nine-hundredth abridger of the History of England, or of the man who...

It's rare that a year goes by without some sort of remake or re-imagining of one of Jane Austen's novels, and it looks like 2010 will be no exception. Natalie Portman has signed on to produe and star in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, an adaptation of this year's bestselling horror-infused retelling of Austen's classic Regency romance. Natalie seems a worthy addition to the list of actresses who've played P&P's headstrong heroine Lizzie...

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a famous novelist inconvenienced by a mystery fatal illness must be in want of a posthumous diagnosis. For more than 40 years Jane Austen’s death in 1817 has been attributed widely to Addison’s disease, a rare condition that only became treatable widely with drugs in the early 1950s.

Jane Austen has become the most revered and probably the most popular of the great English novelists. Not even the vulgarisation of her novels by those who have adapted them for television has impaired the esteem in which she is held. She is not only deemed amusing, which she is, but a wonderfully fair and judicious moralist. Walter Scott praised her ‘exquisite touch, which renders ordinary commonplace things and characters interesting, from...

Zombies have clearly jumped the shark, but Jane Austen, Natalie Portman, and a huge Hollywood budget will surely make them hip again. Portman has signed on to star in and produce the film adaptation of 'Pride and Prejudice and Zombies,' the bestselling book by Seth Grahame-Smith and poor Jane Austen, who never saw any of it coming. From Variety.com:
Described as an expanded version of the Austen classic, the book tells the timeless story of a...

Jane Austen did not invent Colin Firth.Shocking, but true.I've been trying to work out for years the real relationship between Austen and romance novels of the early twenty-first century. She was not, sigh, "the first writer of Regency romances." She wrote contemporary novels.She wrote about marriage for love in a society where everything had its price, but the majority of established married couples in her books are mismatched. Her characters...

It's been the year's strangest trend – horror 'mash-ups' of classic novels. Stephanie Merritt enters a blood-spattered worldIt is a truth universally acknowledged that a brand as successful and limited as the Jane Austen industry must be in want of diversification.
