Books published by Persephone as mentioned in other books

I just thought of starting this thread because of the following, which I read in The Blessing by Nancy Mitford.

"...I was reading The Making of a Marchioness when Mummy died, I remember it so well."
It was a memory that she always found rather disturbing. The little girl, with her nose in the book, had felt that she ought to feel sad, and yet all she wanted was to get on with the story. Sir Conrad had come into the nursery, tears pouring down his cheeks, at the very moment when Emily Fox-Seaton was setting out for the fish, and Grace had been distinctly annoyed by the interruption.

(Chapter 6, page 45)

Has any of you found mention of books published by Persephone in other books?
It would be interesting to know.

I'm reading Jane Brocket's The Gentle Art of Domesticity at the moment. There is a chapter singing the praises of Persephone Books; Jane is a big fan of 'domestic novels' and even knitted a grey hot water bottle cover to match the PB covers.

The heroine of A Hidden Life by Adele Geras (not her best novel) is a Persephone fan, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

India Knight raves about them in The Shops

The April 2010 edition of Vogue Australia magazine has a brief article on Persephone Books. I don't subscribe to this mag but saw it while I was at the hair salon :)

Judith Flanders draws heavily on Molly Hughes's A London Child of the 1870s as well as her other two books, for Inside the Victorian Home. Hughes is quoted frequently and I would love to read her trilogy in its entirety.

Kate Morton lists a couple of Persephones that she used to write The Distant Hours: A Very Great Profession and Few Eggs and No Oranges.

7 - Very interesting Kasthu. I just finished the ARC of The Distant Hours and quite liked it though perhaps more in retrospect. Must checkout Morton's website.
