Towards the end of 1817 a lady novelist, less well-known then than she is now begins a novel on an unusual subject: the rise of 'Sanditon' as a sea-side resort. She dies with only a quarter of it written. What was going on in the writer's mind? What could have happened in her story next? Sanditon is a place where anyone (real or fictitious) may turn up for the water cure. They do! Yes, it's a novel, but one which has been described as 'also a subtle and felt form of literary criticism.'Measham, Donald is the author of 'Jane Austen Out of the Blue ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781847286482 and ISBN 1847286488.
