Lady Susan, And, The Watsons: With A Memoir

Bag om Lady Susan, And, The Watsons: With A Memoir

In this collection of writings by Jane Austen and her nephew James Edward Austen-Leigh, readers are treated to two of Austen's lesser-known works. Lady Susan, a epistolary novel about a widow's charming but unscrupulous attempts to secure a husband for herself and her daughter, offers a glimpse into Austen's wit and biting social commentary. The Watsons, meanwhile, is a unfinished novel that explores the lives of four sisters in a genteel but impoverished family. James Edward Austen-Leigh's memoir of his aunt, which takes up the remainder of the book, adds a personal and heartfelt dimension to readers' understanding of Jane Austen's life and work.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
