{"product_id":"lady-susan-jane-austen-9781169214217","title":"Lady Susan","description":"Lady Susan is a novel written by Jane Austen, which was first published in 1871, after her death. The book is an epistolary novel, which means that it is written in the form of letters exchanged between the characters. The story revolves around Lady Susan Vernon, a beautiful and cunning widow, who is determined to find a wealthy husband for herself and her daughter. Lady Susan is a master manipulator, who uses her charm and wit to gain the favor of men and women alike. She is not above lying or scheming to get what she wants, and she enjoys the thrill of the chase. However, her plans are complicated when her daughter, Frederica, arrives on the scene. Frederica is a shy and innocent young girl, who is not interested in the society life that her mother is so fond of. As Lady Susan tries to find a suitable husband for Frederica, she must also navigate the complicated relationships between herself and her various suitors. These include the handsome Reginald DeCourcy, who is initially taken in by Lady Susan's charms, but soon begins to see through her manipulations. There is also Sir James Martin, a wealthy but dim-witted man, who Lady Susan sees as a potential husband for Frederica. Throughout the novel, Austen explores themes of class, gender, and morality, as Lady Susan and her cohorts navigate the complex social landscape of Regency-era England. The book is a witty and entertaining satire of the society of the time, and is considered to be one of Austen's lesser-known works. However, it has gained a following in recent years, with several film and television adaptations being made.A tale comprised entirely of letters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
