Austen, Jane.

Pride and Prejudice / Northanger Abbey / Persuasion / Pride and prejuice Jane Austen. - 594 pages

Pride and Prejudice This enchanting social comedy is Jane Austen's best-loved work. Here we meet the spirited Elizabeth Bennet, her matchmaking mother and the haughty Mr Darcy, and delight in their love stories, intrigues and friendships. Northanger Abbey is a brilliant and funny response to the sensational 'Gothic Horror' novels popular at the time. Its impressionable young heroine, Catherine, goes to a mysterious ancient Abbey where dire deeds may be afoot--but the consequences are not at all what might be expected. Persuasion depicts the most sensitive, mature and intelligent of all Jane Austen's heroines, and one of the closest in character to the author herself. The love story of Anne Elliot and Captain Wentworth is tole with real poignancy and feeling. --back cover
