Description

Jane Austen, one of the nation’s most beloved authors, whose face adorns our currency, surely needs no introduction, but while many are familiar with her groundbreaking novels, few have come across the brilliantly funny short tales she wrote when young.

This collection pulls together the teenage Austen’s short writings about ‘couples’, which show off the biting wit and satire which are now so associated with her name.
