Most wanted New Year Present!

This is my most wanted item for 2009:-
(would it make me more hopelessly addicted to all things Austen?)

2009 Jane Austen Wall Calendar
http://www.jasna.org/merchandise/calendar.html

from AustenBlog: "We received a copy of the Wisconsin Region's 2009 Jane Austen calendar and can attest to it as a lovely and useful item for the Jane Austen fan. The calendar features color illustrations by the Brock brothers, and nearly every day has an entry from Jane Austen's life or novels. The calendar is $15 plus shipping (see the order page for S&H costs) and they will ship to the UK. "

Hmm...a little bit expensive for me though....

This one has beautiful pictures (http://www.austenquotes.com/jane_austen_press/), but I don't really need it as I've actually been to some of the places!(not that I want to show off....)

一向認為書中文字要比書本的價值高得多。對Austen的古本、珍本沒興趣研究,不過很好奇這本初版Emma是如何的樣子?

如果Austen知道她的書現在這麼值錢,會不會後悔她的版稅收得那麼便宜?(現在她的文字甚至已是public domain)
