Description
"England, 1840. For two decades following the death of her beloved sister, Jane, Cassandra Austen has lived alone, spending her days visiting friends and relations and quietly, purposefully working to protect Jane's reputation. Now in her 60s and increasingly fragile, Cassandra goes to stay with the Fowles of Kintbury, family of her long-dead fiancé, in search of a trove of Jane's letters. Dodging her hostess and a meddlesome housemaid, Cassandra eventually hunts down the letters and confronts the secrets they hold, secrets not only about Jane but about Cassandra herself. Will Cassandra bare the most private details of her life to the world, or commit her sister's legacy to the flames? Moving back and forth in time, between Cassandra's vibrant memories of Jane and the revelations found years later in her sister's letters -- brilliantly imagined by Gill Hornby -- 'Miss Austen' is the untold story of the most important person in Jane Austen's life. With extraordinary empathy, emotional complexity, and wit, Gill Hornby finally gives Cassandra her due, bringing to life a womam as captivating as any Austen heroine"--,Provided by publisher.
