This week I’m talking to Dr Lucie Bea. Not only is she an academic who is extremely knowledgeable about film history, (I quoted her wonderful article on the 1950 film version of The Reluctant Widow in episode 9), she’s also the host of the #GeorgetteHeyerReadalong group which has given me and many other Heyer fans some much needed solace during this weird time. I also spoke with Emily Griffin, Publishing Director of Arrow Books for Penguin Random House.

Welcome to the second half of Fable Gazers' Season 2: Heyer Today, in which I interview knowledgeable experts and fans about underappreciated Regency romance queen Georgette Heyer

This week, we’ll be talking to the President of the Jane Austen Society of Australia, Susannah Fullerton. She’s also an OAM recipient (Order of Australia) as well as a member of the Royal Society of New South Wales. Added to this, she’s a marvellous author and literary historian who is an expert on both Austen and Heyer. Together we discuss people's perceptions of Heyer (a poor man's Jane Austen? Pah!), the future of Heyer critique and what makes Heyer great.

Our second guest is book blogger Eleanor Turner, who’s website ‘Jane to Georgette’ is really informative about Heyer and her works, as well as the comparison between Heyer and her idol, Austen.
