Product Description

In 2002, an amateur Jane Austen scholar, while staying at a Hertfordshire estate, stumbled upon a hidden cache of manuscript pages and made an extraordinary literary discovery - lost scenes from Jane Austen''s novels that reveal an altogether different dimension to her oeuvre.

Pride and Prejudice''s Bingley sisters appear as Sapphic seductresses; Mansfield Park''s incest subtext becomes manifest; and Darcy gets more than his shirt wet.

This incisive parody of academic study is sure to astonish and delight mischievous Austenites.
