Omschrijving
The thirteen letters collected by Jane Austen’s House Museum, in Chawton, give us intimate glimpses into her life in Bath and Chawton and on visits to London, many details finding echoes in her fiction. Brought together in this book, these artefacts make a delightful modern-day keepsake of correspondence from one of the world’s best-loved writers.
'Exquisitely bound and printed, with an excellent introduction by Kathryn Sutherland, this is a book that will delight any Austen reader … a real treasure that will find its way on to many a fan's bookshelf.'
Kathryn Sutherland is Professor of Bibliography and Textual Criticism at the University of Oxford.
