Love & Freindship ReviewWhen this ebook was first loaded, the title was listed as - "Love and Freindship". The preface to this work stated they had not corrected the spelling, punctuation or odd capitalization Austen used in these pieces. I have been told the `i before e' rule was not in place during her time. I am not sure if this is true. She also spells - greif and beleif as such.
This is a great collection of the early writings of Jane Austen. As a writer I LOVED reading her rough ramblings. She played with plot lines and character traits. So this title is not so much a full story but many snippets of ideas or writing practice. Many of the shorts contained are rough and unpolished.
The first section of Love and Friendship is a funny, rambling tale told through letters. Imagine what a soap opera written by Austen would be like and you'll have it. Once you've read this collection I suggest you try Lady Susan. That one is equally as fun.
Love and Friendship is a peek into the working mind of a classic author. We rarely get this opportunity and I encourage you to give these samples a read.Love & Freindship Overview

A Fine Brush on Ivory: An Appreciation of Jane Austen ReviewIt has been over a year since I read this book, but I thought I had to write something seeing the horrible single review it's received so far. Briefly, I enjoyed this book more than any other Austen criticism I've read. My background with Austen is that I did not read her in college, though I was an English major, but discovered P&P and then read the rest of her novels when I was about 25.
I found that reading this book was a bit like that experience, letting me revisit the characters and settings I had enjoyed so much. Moreover, the author's analysis lead me to consider all the novels in ways I hadn't before. These ways were not radically different, but I thought this book built wonderfully on a variety of the author's subtle observations (not unlike Austen's own style, eh?). I especially liked the bit on Pride and Prejudice, which is often thought of as Austen's simplest novel. The idea that Mr. Bennet is a sort of villain darkened the novel a bit, and made me think about how easily P&P could have been as brooding as Mansfield Park. The author's analysis of the character's interaction revealed how complicated and insightful Austen is even in her lightest and brightest work.A Fine Brush on Ivory: An Appreciation of Jane Austen Overview
