Jane Austen, one of the nation’s most beloved authors, whose face
adorns our currency, surely needs no introduction, but while many
are familiar with her groundbreaking novels, and despite lending
its name to a film adaptation of Lady Susan in 2016, her burlesque
Love and Freindship is an unjustly neglected gem of satirical
comedy. Written when she was still in her teens, Love and
Freindship is a fascinating, light-hearted epistolary work that
shows Austen’s wit developing into the satirical prowess she is
remembered for, and casts the novels with which her name is so
associated in a new light.

G.K.Chesterton (1874-1936), was one of the great Catholic writers
of the twentieth century. He brought a distinctive Catholic
perspective to scores of books and articles - even to the genre of
detective novels in the famous Father Brown mysteries. As this
collection shows, Chestertons writing contains a spiritual
dimension. In his ability to combine matters of great seriousness
with great humour the contours of his distinctive and "paradoxical"
spirituality emerge.
