Jane Austen is perhaps the best-loved of all English novelists. Her knowledge of human nature is remarkable, and her awareness of the importance of class, money and appearances makes her a peculiarly modern author.

It is bound in real cloth, with head and tail bands, a ribbon marker, top edge gilt and a gold-blocked jacket. Illustrated by Hugh Thomson.
