A delightful collection of Jane Austen's juvenilia in a pocket hardback edition, with an introduction by Kathryn White.

We will all die, though probably not from the thing that we feared or foresaw. That certainty haunts the book, sharpens the pitch of its comedy, and sets it apart from her earlier works.
