The Wicked Wit of Jane Austen


By Dominique Enright



"The Wicked Wit of Jane Austen" is an absorbing collection of the author's sharpest, most profound and amusing observations - on human nature, money, marriage, life and society - taken from her novels and from her extremely entertaining letters. Austen's social insights remain as fresh today as when they were first published, and this delightful volume offers the reader a thematic distillation of her novels and letters. It also contains numerous quotes displaying Austen's sharp - indeed, often wicked - social observation and satirical wit. Easy to dip in to, and highly quotable, this beautifully decorated volume will delight all Austen devotees, as well as readers less familiar with her life and work.
