Jane Austen is one of Britain's most infamous female authors with most of this fame being acquired posthumously. With six novels in her repertoire, Austen's works have been adapted for both film and television and have been critiqued by scholars and studied by students for decades. Most recently, Austen has been a source of spin-offs and commercialization, a relevant author despite more two hundred years separating her life from the present. This book features correspondence between Austen and her family as well as the musings of Austen scholars about the authors life and work.
