In the world of famous writers, Jane Austen always had the vibe of someone who might get involved in underground fight clubs--right after Truman Capote or Seamus Heaney. The gentry of Jane's time was wound so tightly that swinging brass knuckles would be an obvious outlet for stress relief.
A video--a mock trailer for a non-existent movie--has come out the past few days and gone viral. It blends together Jane Austen and the film adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's Fight Club.
If only.
