Sanditon and The Watsons: The Unfinished Jane Austen - Tapa blanda

Every author has projects which, for any number of reasons, are never completed. Jane Austen started work on these two novels, Sanditon and The Watsons, but completed neither. This book contains the chapters of these two novels which Austen wrote, and offers a fascinating look at these incomplete novels by this much-loved author.

One of England s most beloved authors, Jane Austen wrote such classic novels as Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, and Northanger Abbey. Published anonymously during her life, Austen s work was renowned for its realism, humour, and commentary on English social rites and society at the time. Austen s writing was supported by her family, particularly by her brother, Henry, and sister, Cassandra, who is believed to have destroyed, at Austen s request, her personal correspondence after Austen s death in 1817. Austen s authorship was revealed by her nephew in A Memoir of Jane Austen, published in 1869, and the literary value of her work has since been recognized by scholars around the world.
