Description

Few novelists have conveyed the subtleties and nuances of their own social milieu with the wit and insight of Jane Austen. Through her vivacious and spirited heroines and their circle, she painted vivid portraits of English middle-class life as the eighteenth century came to a close. Each of these novels is a love story and a story about marriage — marriage for love, for financial security, for social status. But they are not mere romances. Ironic, comic and wise, they are masterly studies of the society Austen observed. This 6 volume set is a delight for fans of Classics. Titles in this boxed set: * Mansfield Park * Persuasion * Sense and Sensibility * Pride and Prejudice * Emma * Northanger Abbey
