Jane Austen is perhaps the best-known female English novelist, having written such classics as Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, and Emma.

Generations of readers have treasured these letters for their glimpses into Austen’s everyday life. They tell us that she greatly enjoyed a meal of pickled pork, read with pleasure the novels of French author Madame de Genlis, and took time during a London visit to enjoy the performance of a troupe of Indian jugglers.

The letters offer a revealing window into the life of their talented creator.
