Searching for Jane Austen

This superb life of Jane Austen delves deeply into her novels to show that Austen was dauntingly ambitious, awesomely talented, supremely witty--in short, much more than simply a chronicler of marriageable young women and their romantic adventures. Emily Auerbach also looks closely at Austen`s life, and uncovers that it had some surprising aspects. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
