She is married to Jonathan Bate and lives in Oxford.

Rezensionen
"[Byrne] breathes yet more life into Austen and her works by considering the objects that populated her days.... [The] thematic approach offers a revealing picture of Austen and a lively social history....paints a fresh and vivid picture of an inimitable woman." The Economist
