Lady Susan

A charming widow. A reluctant daughter. A society ruled by money, marriage, and reputation. In Lady Susan, Jane Austen delivers one of her sharpest and most mischievous works. Lady Susan Vernon is beautiful, intelligent, and skilled in the art of persuasion. Recently widowed, she moves through drawing rooms and family estates with one goal in mind: to secure her future, whatever the cost. Through a lively exchange of letters, Austen exposes the schemes, scandals, and social calculations of a woman determined to bend society to her will. Brilliantly witty and surprisingly modern, Lady Susan is a compact classic filled with irony, manipulation, romance, and psychological insight. Ideal for readers of Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, and classic epistolary fiction, this edition presents one of Austen's most fascinating and unconventional heroines.
