Jane Austen
I was surprised to see there isn't a thread dedicated to Jane Austen, because normally wherever you find well-read, intelligent people, you find Austen fans
 So, what's your favourite novel and why (first person to say something other than Pride and Prejudice gets a prize... I mean, is very clever indeed)? Has anyone read her juvenalia? It's very funny

Still the sea, Consolingly disastrous, will return While the strange starfish, hugely magnified, Waits in the jewelled basin of a pool. |
