Searching for Jane Austen out in paperback in March
Emily Auerbach’s book Searching for Jane Austen will be out in paperback in March 2006.
Auerbach’s 2004 book, “Searching for Jane Austen,” will be released in paperback for the first time March 2006 by the University of Wisconsin Press. In it, Auerbach demolishes with wit and vivacity the often-held view of “Jane,” a decorous maiden aunt writing her small drawing-room stories of tea parties and balls.
Auerbach presents a different Jane Austen - a brilliant writer who, despite the obstacles facing women of her time, worked seriously on improving her craft and became one of the world’s greatest novelists: a master of wit, irony and character development.
Amazon.com lists the release date as March 28, 2006.
