The Complete Jane Austen - Six Novels - Sense and Sensibility - Pride and Prejudice - Mansfield Park - Emma - Northanger Abbey - Persuasion Audiobook

Viewed from an historical perspective, Jane Austen's novels should not exist. She was born during a period where female writers (if they dared to write at all) were dismissed, ignored and dissuaded from writing altogether. The fact that Ms. Austen went ahead and created the novels contained in this collection - which have gone on to become some of the most treasured books in literary history - is nothing short of a miracle.

During her brief life (she died at only forty-one), Jane Austen wrote "Pride and Prejudice," "Sense and Sensibility," "Emma," "Mansfield Park," "Northanger Abbey," and "Persuasion." The first four of these novels were published (anonymously) during her lifetime, the final two were published posthumously. While they generated a small amount of interest and a smattering of positive reviews when they first appeared, it wasn't until the mid-1800's that her work began to gain in popularity. By the twentieth century, Jane Austen was roundly considered one of the most brilliant and groundbreaking authors of the Regency era and, indeed, one of the most talented and esteemed novelists of all time.

No literary collection is complete without the works of Jane Austen and in this volume are her complete novels - all six of them - presented in their original and unabridged format along with a brief biography of the author. This collection is narrated by renowned audiobook performer Sara Nichols, best known for her narration of Charlotte Brontë's "Jane Eyre," Willa Cather's "Prairie Trilogy" and many others.
