Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

Jane Austen's letters afford a unique insight into the daily life of the novelist: intimate and gossipy, observant and informative, they bring alive her family and friends, her surroundings and contemporary events with a freshness unparalleled in modern biographies. We recognize the unmistakable voice of the author of 'Pride and Prejudice, ' witty and amusing as she describes the social life of town and country, thoughtful and constructive when writing about the business of literary composition.


Review:

"The resultant book affirms that, in an era often agitated by factionalism among Austen scholars, the task of editorship fell to the ablest and sanest of them all."

John McAleer, Chicago Tribune Books, 07/23/1995
