Jane Austen
Jane Austen nació en 1775 en Steventon (Hampshire), séptima de los ocho hijos del rector de la parroquia. Educada principalmente por su padre, empezó a escribir de muy joven, para recreo de la familia, y a los veintitrés años envió a los editores el manuscrito de La abadía de Northanger, que fue rechazado. Trece años después, en 1811, conseguiría publicar Juicio y sentimiento, a la que pronto seguirían Orgullo y prejuicio (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) y Emma (1816), que obtuvieron un gran éxito. Después de su muerte, acaecida prematuramente en 1817, y que le impidió concluir su novela SanditonLa abadía de Northanger, Persuasión (1818). Satírica, antirromántica, profunda y tan primorosa como mordaz, la obra de Jane Austen nace toda ella de una inquieta observación de la vida doméstica y de una estética necesidad de orden moral. «La Sabidu-ría –escribió una vez- es mejor que el Ingenio, y a la larga tendrá sin duda la risa de su parte.»

Reviews for Northanger Abbey Sense & Sensibility Pride & Prejudice
2 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5It was the WORST book I have ever read. Terrible! Never even try to read it.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I couldn’t get through the introduction-both hokey and dripping in self-importance with unbearable background music. Droning on about the uplifting importance of ‘The Classics’, this narrator is a nightmare pastiche of boring teachers of ‘Literature’ who turn off generations of students from any appreciation of reading. Awful.
