A Secret Sisterhood, drawing on letters and diaries, some never published before, brings to light a wealth of surprising female collaborations: the friendship between Jane Austen and one of the family servants, amateur playwright Anne Sharp; the daring feminist author Mary Taylor, who shaped the work of Charlotte BronteÌ; the transatlantic friendship of the seemingly aloof George Eliot and the ebullient Harriet Beecher Stowe; and Virginia Woolf and Katherine Mansfield, most often portrayed as bitter foes, but who, in fact, enjoyed a complex friendship. They were sometimes scandalous and volatile, sometimes supportive and inspiring, but always--until now--tantalizingly consigned to the shadows. 600 10 $a Austen, Jane, $d 1775-1817 $x Friends and associates. 600 10 $a Eliot, George, $d 1819-1880 $x Friends and associates. 600 10 $a BronteÌ, Charlotte, $d 1816-1855 $x Friends and associates. 600 10 $a Woolf, Virginia, $d 1882-1941 $x Friends and associates. 650 0 $a Women authors, English $y 19th century $x Biography. 650 0 $a Women authors, English $y 20th century $x Biography. 650 0 $a Novelists, English $x Biography. 650 0 $a Female friendship $z Great Britain $x History. 650 0 $a Authorship $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Women and literature $z Great Britain $x History. 700 1 $a Sweeney, Emma Claire. 700 1 $a Atwood, Margaret, $d 1939- 941 $a 6 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119015639.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019011342.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804023625.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20211027010347.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722054844.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20210204022631.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9FF91CB8A17211EABF4F886D97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
