Thoughts', 'Old Problem', 'Heartburn', 'Faint Possibility',
'Otherwise Engaged' and 'Management Decision'.
Pride and Prejudice - An elegant tableau revolving around the five
Bennett daughters, including clever, strong-spirited Elizabeth.
Austen's masterpiece is a study of love, loss and snobbery. Sense
and Sensibility - The engaging story of sisters Elinor and
Marianne, whose lives are turned upside down when they are left
almost penniless following the death of their father. Two men with
whom the sisters form attachments present more unforeseen
challenges along the way. Emma - Emma is an exquisitely crafted
social portrait of late Eighteenth-century society, widely
considered to be Austen's most literarily accomplished work. Emma
Woodhouse, self-appointed meddling matchmaker, stands to lose out
on love herself if she isn't careful. Persuasion - In part
autobiographical, Persuasion has a quieter sense of humour, and
takes a more serious tone, than some of Austen's other novels. Anne
Elliot is revisited by her ex-fiancee, coinciding with a downturn
in her family's fortunes, and has some choices to make. Northanger
Abbey - Young and susceptible, Catherine Morland expects dark
secrets and many dangers to be lurking in the hidden recesses of
Northanger Abbey. In fact, the real obstacles lying in her path are
more mundane but just as serious as her imagined horrors. The
collection also includes 2 Bonus CDs including The Watsons, an
early Austen short story, and a collection of letters. Titles read
by highly-acclaimed British actresses including Anna Massey,
Harriet Walter and Joanna Lumley.
