But it is also a product of the eighteenth century she grew up in - dark, grotesque, often surprisingly bawdy, and a far cry from the polished, sparkling novels of manners for which she became famous. Drunken heroines, babies who bite off their mother's fingers, and a letter-writer who has murdered her whole family all feature in these very funny pieces. This edition includes all of Austen's juvenilia, including her 'History of England' - written by 'a partial, prejudiced, and ignorant Historian' - and the novella 'Lady Susan', in which the anti-heroine schemes and cheats her way through high society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jane Austen","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":43174690390259,"sku":"9780140433340","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/products\/9780140433340.jpg?v=1662066673","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/love-and-freindship-jane-austen-9780140433340","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
