On Jane Austen's Life...
Jane Austen (1775-1817)
"The six most polished, controlled and elegant social comedies
to be found in English literature were written by a woman whose personal life remains an enigma. Observing her own leisured
social circles, Jane Austen's cool judgment, ironic detachment and refined sentiments give her novels a unique depth and compelling
charm. Her 'exquisite touch' and sharp but unintrusive humour earned her the immediate admiration of the greatest writers
of her day and her popularity remains undimmed."
