I didn't know there were any mothers left who hadn't read Georgete Heyer. She's an endangered species :).

I hadn't thought she'd ever want to. Apparently, an acquaintence convinced her Heyer didn't write boddice-rippers, but something more sub-Austen.

sub-Austen. I need to try that term on someone I know who wrote an MA on Heyer creating a Regency for thebpopular imagination.
