The Younger Sister

Summary

The Younger Sister, by Catherine Anne Hubback and Jane Austen. Presented by The Online Stage.     In Jane Austen's unfinished novel, young Emma Watson returns to her father's house after being raised by her wealthy and refined uncle.   As she gets to know her family, she finds that her father is reclusive and sickly, her sisters are crude and shallow, and her eldest brother has a petulance that is matched only by his wife's.   When Emma's social graces draw the attention of the aristocratic Osborne family, she must navigate the complex and judgmental world of class dynamics in Regency England.     Austen began work on The Watsons in 1803 but abandoned it in 1805 after the death of her father.   This audiobook is a completion of the novel, written by Austen's niece, Catherine Hubback, in 1850.      Narrator: Anna Grace   Emma Watson: Grace Keller Scotch   Elizabeth Watson/Miss Morgan/Miss Hall: Elizabeth Klett   Mary Edwards/Margaret Watson/young lady: Leanne Yau   Mrs. Edwards/Mrs. Turner/Gipsy/Lady Gordon's maid: Linda Barrans   Tom Musgrove/Captain Tomlins: Mark Crowle-Groves   Mr. Edwards/man in the farmyard/Mr. Morgan: David Prickett   Miss Osbourne/Miss Jenkins/Mrs. Harding Russell: Jennie VanderLugt   Mrs. Willis/Jane Watson/Mrs. Browning: Elizabeth Chambers   Charles Willis/Sir William/Sam Watson: Andy Harrington   Lord Osbourne/Alfred Freemantle: David Shears   Jenny/Lady Osbourne/Miss Bridge: Sarah Mitchell   Mr. Watson/Mr. Bridge: Noel Badrian   Robert Watson/Mr. Corbet: Jeff Moon   Mr. Howard/George Millar: Tom Saer   Miss Carr/Penelope Watson/Janetta Watson/Annie Millar: Libby Stephenson     Audio edited by Libby Stephenson and Denis Daly
