Jane Austen is more of a celebrity and media queen now than she was
in her lifetime. As a forensic observer of the social scene, with a
mordant wit, ironic eye, and a sly way of puncturing pretension and
seeing past the social fac ade, there is no doubt that if she had
been with us today, she would have had her own column in an
upmarket glossy a stylish, smartcookie agony aunt. Unfortunately,
she did not get the opportunity, and so Jane Austens Guide to
Modern Lifes Dilemmas is a crack at showing what it might have been
like. This is a smart, sassy look at modern work, domestic, and
romantic dilemmas, answered not by Jane Austen herself, but using
her clear-eyed, witty, unsentimental view of life, love, and money
with quotations from her books, letters, and unpublished writing as
back-up. Treat it like a new and sensible best friend, to turn to
whenever you are confronting lifes dilemmas (how can I stop saying
yes to everything, what do I wear to a society wedding, is internet
dating just for the desperate, etc).
