Jane Austen produced some of the best known novels in the English Language and remains both beloved and influential. Bridgerton wouldn't exist without her but there's more to her than ballrooms and longing glances.
Though we think of her life as tranquil and uneventful it was a period of immense change, marked by wars, revolutions and debates on everything from slavery and feminism to poetry and landscape gardening. She moved between country estates and city lodgings, encountering aristocrats, naval heroes and alleged criminals, and she poured all these experiences into her writing.
Drawing on the latest research, this book takes a fresh look at Jane Austen's life, inspirations and legacy, making it the perfect introduction to the writer and her invaluable addition for those who already know her well.
