Pick of The Week June 27th 2011 – Jane Austen Collection
A Superb Edition of The Selected Works of Jane Austen
If one English novelist were to be selected for purity of style, Jane Austen, the quiet recorder of love and manners among the lesser landed gentry, would be a popular choice. One of the principal wonders of literature, she laid her victims bare with unerring intuition. Her pen was deliciously wicked – but wit was her weapon – astringency and, perhaps, gentle irony. And always her prose was pure delight.
This collection contains all Miss Austen’s six classics;
Sense and Sensibility
Pride and Prejudice
Mansfield Park
Emma
Northanger Abbey/Persuasion
These fine, beautiful, powder blue volumes were created as a tribute to Jane Austen.
Bound in real lambskin, these books are ornately embellished with 23ct gold on spines, covers, and all page edges.
Blue Silk Endpapers and Blue Silk Ribbon Marker.
