Pride and Prejudice
Austen’s best-loved novel is a memorable story about the inaccuracy of first impressions, about the power of reason, and above all about the strange dynamics of human relationships and emotions.
Northanger Abbey
This is one of Jane Austen’s earliest and most varied works. It contains fascinating insights into her life as both a reader and a writer, and is as imaginative and entertaining as the Gothic novels it sets out to lampoon.
Persuasion
Persuasion is a story of self-knowledge and personal regeneration, of social change and emotional politics. It is Austen’s most mature work, and also her most wickedly satirical.
Emma
Precious and spoilt, Emma is charming to all those around her but insensitive to their feelings, so it takes her some time to learn her lesson and profit from spending less time worrying about how other people should live their lives and more time redeeming herself in the eyes of Mr Knightley, her sternest critic.
Mansfield Park
Mansfield Park is a novel about town and country, surface dazzle and lasting values.... Both a penetrating account of individual motives and a portrayal in miniature of Jane Austen’s age, Mansfield Park remains as fresh today as when it was written.
Sense and Sensibility
The first of Jane Austen’s major novels, is a portrait of two very different sisters….A powerful drama of family life and growing up, the novel is at once a subtle comedy of manners and a striking critique of early-nineteenth-century society.
