Thaddeus of Warsaw
Jane PorterDevoney LooserI'm transfixed by this "Home Reading" ed. of Jane Porter's Thaddeus of Warsaw (1803), pub in late C19 Phila. by Lippincott. Loving the woman on the spine, too! Material proof that the great forgetting of @SisterNovelists was gradual, first relegating their works to children's lit https://t.co/EZo0EjsumW

Old Babes in the Wood: Stories
Margaret AtwoodDevoney LooserSo beautifully put, by @escottosborne : "Men account for only 19 percent of the audience for the top 10 best-selling female authors (#JaneAusten and Margaret Atwood among them) . . . So women? Keep telling your stories. And men? How about letting women in? . . .Read their books" https://t.co/6oB71pnqim

Waverly: Historical Novel
Walter ScottDevoney LooserHappy #InternationalWomensDay ! Today I'm honoring @SisterNovelists Jane & Anna Maria Porter. Jane arguably invented the modern historical novel, influencing childhood friend Sir Walter Scott. His reputation survived. Hers didn't. She deserves remembering. https://t.co/BdB0xcCKxM https://t.co/gaB9hzXlPF
