Her fragmentary juvenilia show Austen developing her own sense of narrative form whilst parodying popular kinds of fiction of her day. \u003cem\u003eLady Susan\u003c\/em\u003e is a wickedly funny epistolary novel about a captivating but unscrupulous widow seeking to snare husbands for her daughter and herself. \u003cem\u003eThe Watsons\u003c\/em\u003e explores themes of family relationships, the marriage market, and attitudes to rank, which became the hallmarks of her major novels. In \u003cem\u003eSanditon\u003c\/em\u003e, Austen exercises her acute powers of social observation in the setting of a newly fashionable seaside resort. These novels are here joined by shorter fictions that survive in Austen's manuscripts, including critically acclaimed works like \u003cem\u003eCatharine, Love and Freindship  sic]\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eThe History of England.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1451617\"\u003eJane Austen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wordsworth Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 4.90w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781840226966\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 184022696X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC004000\"\u003eClassics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wordsworth Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42668877512941,"sku":"9781840226966","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_5251d934-32cc-4d51-b065-8d5a8073ebfc.jpg?v=1649462200","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/lady-susan-and-other-works-9781840226966","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
