Jane Austen Lady Susan, The Watsons, Sanditon-苏珊夫人 沃森一家 桑迪顿

作者: Jane Austen

书名：Lady Susan, The Watsons, Sanditon《苏珊夫人 沃森一家 桑迪顿》

英文简介：Together, these three works - one novel unpublished in her lifetime and two unfinished fragments - reveal Jane Austen's development as a great artist.

Lady Susan, with its wicked, beautiful, intelligent and energetic heroine, is a sparkling melodrama which takes its tone from the outspoken and robust eighteen century. Written later, and probably abandoned after her father's death, The Watsons is a tantalizing and highly delightful story whose vitality and optimism centre on the marital prospects of the Watson sisters in a small provincial town. Sanditon, Jane Austen's last fiction, is set in a seaside town and its themes concern the new speculative consumer society and foreshadow the great social upheavals of the Industrial Revolution.
