Thought I'd give you a little update on the Jane Austen book that I illustrated last year, as I'm often asked about it. Jack and Alice is currently being printed in Portuguese by a Brazilian publisher. I'll update again when it is released. Unfortunately, no news on an English version yet, which is crazy to me. Because, with all those Andrea Joseph fans out there I'm sure it would sell. I believe Jane Austen has a few fans herself, too!

Oh, I hope the english version will be released soon! I looked at the Italian publishers homepage the other day and nearly bought the book, although I wouldn´t understand much of the words. Just to have a look at the illustrations. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm really surprised there's no English version, considering the huge UK and US following for Jane Austen. Maybe it's a funding thing and they're just waiting?
ReplyDeleteJane Austen would be a great fan of yours :) I know enough Italian to buy that edition but for the sake of your English-speaking admirers I also hope that an English version will see the light soon. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh Andrea, I'd buy it in a minute (in English) yes indeed!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, guys.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure why it hasn't been published in English yet. The more I learn about the publishing world the less I understand. I always think that a new Jane Austen publication is a no brainer though. Anyways, I do hope one day soon I will be reporting the news that it has been picked up by an English speaking (?!) publisher.
Cheers!
Lol, I agree. If I were to buy a Jane Austen book it would be to have your art in it. I'm more a fan of your art than Jane Austen!
ReplyDeletecount me in! i'm always up for one of your publications. already have a nice little collection, but looking forward to more ;)
