Sanditon & Other Stories: Jane Austen

`Those who tell their own story, you know, must be listened to with caution.`

When young Charlotte Heywood arrives in the seaside resort of Sanditon, a town seeking to reinvent itself as a fashionable destination, she too attempts to begin anew.
As she begins to settle into Sanditon society, a slew of new arrivals stirs up emotions. Among them are relatives of the wealthy widow Lady Denham, seeking her generous fortune; Miss Lambe, a rich heiress; and Sydney Parker, the handsome young man who catches Charlotte`s eye. Charlotte must navigate the complicated web of liaisons, finding herself more involved than she ever intended...
Collected here with her unfinished work The Watsons, and the novella-in-letters, Lady Susan, Austen`s final, unfinished novel demonstrates her biting sense of humour and gives readers a thrilling glimpse of a genius at work.
