The Real Life Inspiration Behind Jane Austen’s Work

Fiction often imitates real-life. That was certainly the case for Jane Austen.


This book is part biography, part critical study. It examines all of Austen's published and unpublished work to see what was happening in her life that she might have used as inspiration for her fiction.
