THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'This is my kind of history: carefully
researched but so vivid that you are convinced Lucy Worsley was
actually there at the party - or the parsonage.' Antonia Fraser 'A
refreshingly unique perspective on Austen and her work and a
beautifully nuanced exploration of gender, creativity, and
domesticity.' Amanda Foreman Lucy Worsley 'is a great scene-setter
for this tale of triumph and heartbreak.' Sunday Times On the 200th
anniversary of Jane Austen's death, historian Lucy Worsley leads us
into the rooms from which our best-loved novelist quietly changed
the world. This new telling of the story of Jane's life shows us
how and why she lived as she did, examining the places and spaces
that mattered to her. It wasn't all country houses and ballrooms,
but a life that was often a painful struggle. Jane famously lived a
'life without incident', but with new research and insights Lucy
Worsley reveals a passionate woman who fought for her freedom. A
woman who far from being a lonely spinster in fact had at least
five marriage prospects, but who in the end refused to settle for
anything less than Mr Darcy.
