Hey listener,

Today Owen Narrates "Lady Audley's Secret" Chapter 7

Written by Mary Elizabeth Braddon

Published in the London Journal 1863

Welcome back to the Victorian Periodical Parade. We have another reading from the London Journal for you today. My name is Owen and I have been assisting Kari Nixon, PhD, by reading the fiction portions of the 1863 bound annual edition of the London Journal. This is a nice collection of literature and news articles that connects present day folk to the Victorians of 160 years ago.

In Chapter 7 we find that a year has past for George Talboys and that he has stayed with Robert Audley during that time. How much time has George spent with his son and father in law? We are about to find out. Has George met Sir Michael and Lady Audley since returning to england? That answer lies within this episode. What made George stay? Well, the next ship to sail to Australia had just set out a day before George inquired, and the next was due to depart within a month. In the interim Robert persuaded George to go to Russia with him. Why he stayed is beyond that is not in chapter 7 though. Here’s hoping that you all enjoy the next 27 minutes.

Our next episode will likely be a breakdown episode where Dr. Kari Nixon goes over the contents of Chapter 7 and the articles published alongside it, in the London Journal. We hope to hear from you on Instagram, Twitter, or Youtube

Have a great day! 

Kari, Owen, and Daniel
