Jane Austen

I hope to write some blogs about the Jane Austen novels, probalby starting with the popular favourite, Pride and Prejudice. Austen wrote a version of this early work, called First Impressions, when she was only 15 and re wrote it later under the familiar title. Her hero Fitzwilliam Darcy is a very rich man, with an income of 10,000 a year and Elizabeth Bennet is probably her most loved heroine.
