INSPIRATION for GRACECHURCH STREET soap: “Poor Jane! I am sorry for her, because, with her disposition, she may not get over it immediately. It had better have happened to you, Lizzy; you would have laughed yourself out of it sooner. But do you think she would be prevailed upon to go back with us? Change of scene might be of service—and perhaps a little relief from home may be as useful as anything.” ~Mrs. Gardiner decides to invite Jane to Gracechurch Street. Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.
In early January, the Gardiners take Jane back to their London home in Gracechurch Street. She has an extended visit, with the secret hope of seeing Mr. Bingley.
