The Loiterer was a weekly periodical that ran for 60 issues beginning in January 1789, founded and written by Jane Austen’s brothers, James and Henry. Two months after its debut, the brothers received a letter of from one Sophia Sentiment, who, with tongue in cheek, complained that The Loiterer contained nothing of interest to women.

Sophia was in fact a 13-year-old Jane Austen. Her letter was reprinted in issue 9.

The Crown's Emma Corrin joined us to read the letter at our Royal Albert Hall show in October 2021.
