While I thought Lady Susan was absolutely great , I would probably only recommend Austen’s juvenilia and her later unfinished novel to people who are really interested in Austen and her development as a writer. The History of England is illustrated by Cassandra Austen Also included are two epistolary novels, Lady Susan and Love and Freindship (sic), The Watsons, Catherine, Lesley Castle, Evelyn, Frederic and Elfrida, Jack and Alice, Edgar and Emma, Henry and Eliza and The Three Sisters. It represents what Richard Church regarded as Jane Austen’s literary work-basket, and contains some of Austen’s earliest work – her hilariously brief History of England, illustrated by her favourite sister, which is a worthy forerunner to 1066 & All That, to the unfinished Sanditon, the novel of her maturity on which she was working at her death aged 42. This rare collection is a must for all Jane-ites. Sanditon, Lady Susan, & The History of England by Jane Austenįirst Published: Posthumously – Writen c.1786-1817įorm: Collection of juvenilia, short stories, and unfinished novels
