Overview

Jane Austen’s Little Book of Wisdom offers more than 300 bite-size quotes of inspiration and wisdom from one of the greatest female writers in the English language.

Jane Austen is one of the most celebrated female writers in history, best known for her novels about love, life, friendship and faith, all set upon the backdrop of English Georgian society.

Here, in one concise volume, are over 300 quotes from her famous works – from Pride and Prejudice to Emma – and from her personal letters.

With each chapter focussing on a different theme – from Love & Longing to Female Strength – this gorgeous gift book is the perfect compilation of witty, moving, and thought-provoking words from one of the best-loved writers of the 19th century.

A perfect addition to this ‘Little Book’ series, Jane Austen’s Little Book of Wisdom follows on from, C.S. Lewis’s Little Book of Wisdom and Shakespeare’s Little Book of Wisdom.
