Mansfield Park (Illustrated) (eMagination Masterpiece Classics Book 3)

Her older friend and mentor, Lady Russell, acting in place of Anne's late mother, persuaded her to break the engagement Modern popularity - Austen's work brought her little personal fame and only a few positive reviews during her lifetime, but the publication in of her nephew's A Memoir of Jane Austen introduced her to a wider public, and by the s she had become widely accepted in academia as a great English writer.

The second half of the 20th century saw a proliferation of Austen scholarship and the emergence of a Janeite fan culture. Read more Read less. Long ago, she let the love of her life get away.

In this case, she had allowed herself to be persuaded by a trusted family friend that the young man she loved wasn't an adequate match, social stationwise, and that Anne could do better. The novel opens some seven years after Anne sent her beau packing, and she's still alone. But then the guy she never stopped loving comes back from the sea. As always, Austen's storytelling is so confident, you can't help but allow yourself to be taken on the enjoyable journey.

British illustrator Oxenbury, best known for her acclaimed depictions of baby and toddler life, has undertaken the ambitious challenge of illustrating Carroll's classic dreamscape. This is the second new edition of Alice this season, and though it is a welcome addition, it suffers a bit by comparison with Lisbeth Zwerger's version. Oxenbury's Wonderland is a soft, beautiful springtime world that is a pleasure to observe, but it lacks Zwerger's sense of mystery and Carroll's intellectual angularity.

As for Oxenbury's Alice, she's pretty and blonde, but she lacks personality and may be too jarringly contemporary in appearance for some readers.

Nevertheless, Oxenbury is a brilliant watercolorist, and her pictures are beautifully designed, as is the book itself. The thick, elegant, cream-colored paper is a visual and tactile delight.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later. Got hooked to it and never stopped I have read almost all of Jane Austen's work and Persuasion has a mature and different angle. The main character, Anna, sure to fall in love with. Got hooked to it and never stopped till I got it completed.

Good print and paper quality is good. But, the description at the back of the book is of a different story of Jane Austen- Emma knew is because have read that book also. I don't know if this mis printing is with my edition or there are others. It never bothered me but want a polite note to the publisher to get this error rectified. This is Jane Austen's last completed novel written A really moving story about second chance at love.

This is Jane Austen's last completed novel written when she was much older and much wiser, and the wisdom is seen in this book, as is evident in the choice of a self made man for it's lead hero. The book is as good as Pride and Prejudice , though it is not without its minor faults. Obviously Austen didn't get to revise this book in manner she used to do with her other books and for that reason the language is a bit coarser compared to her previous works, where she used much finer language which she is known for.

Also the scenes between the lead pair are much fewer and any suggestion to love to the reader is based on the knowledge of a previous relationship, however this is compensated for in the love letter in the ending chapters which is the most touching love letters ever written. The book is marvellous indeed , and must read for lovers of classic literature.
