Follow the wise words of one of the world's best-loved authors to lead a happier life.
Are you more Marianne than Elinor, Lydia rather than Lizzy Be More Jane will teach you to address life with more sense and less prejudice, taking useful lessons from the novels and letters of Jane Austen, one of the worlds best-loved writers. Times may change, but many of our problems remain the same. Sophie Andrews, a young Janeite, knows from personal experience that in times of trouble, or just on matters of friendship, family and love, answers are to be found in the pages of Miss Austens novels.
This is an entertaining, and often illuminating, little volume, enhanced by novelist and artist Jane Odiwes charming illustrations. Regency World
