Lady Susan is a selfish, unscrupulous and scheming woman, highly attractive to men, who tries to trap the best possible husband while maintaining a relationship with a married man. She subverts all the standards of the romantic novel: she has an active role, she is not only beautiful but intelligent and witty, and her suitors are significantly younger than she is (in contrast with Sense and Sensibility and Emma, which feature marriages by their female protagonists to men who are 16 years older). Although the ending includes a traditional reward for morality, Lady Susan herself is treated more...

Ultima novela de la autora, publicada postumamente en 1818, Persuasion narra la historia de una mujer en su madurez, una mujer sensible, paciente y menospreciada, que, anos despues de haber rechazado, persuadida por un mal consejo, al hombre que amaba, ve como este reaparece en su vida, rico y honorable pero aun despechado.

En esta novela se reunen los tres cuadernos que Jane Austen escribio a muy temprana edad (13-14 anos), y que ella misma llamo volumenes y numero colectivamente del I al III. Hay textos que no corrigio nunca, pero otros son piezas muy evolucionadas que la autora reviso justo antes de la publicacion de Juicio y sentimiento. En los textos prevalece un humor mas desatado en inventiva de lo que sera normal en la autora, pero muy parecida al resto de su obra en los aspectos ironicos e incisivos."

Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo.
