Austen's Pearl Necklace LOL my praxis

Episode Notes
Welcome back! This week we're chatting with Jane Austen and K-pop superfan, Dr Rita Dashwood. Rita is currently a postdoctoral research fellow on the Romantic Ridiculous project at Edge Hill University. When not reading books, Rita likes to write them and is currently working on her first novel - a YA fantasy about queer witches. In this week's episode shots are fired at our guest from episode 13, Dr Andy McInnes who suggested Austen would have voted for Brexit. We get to the bottom of her Brexit-voting ways, find out what her position would be on the housing crisis, and that she was into sodomy and pearl necklaces. We also dive into the world of adaptation and discuss the relationship between Disney villains, Austen baddies and...incest?
