About the book

Across the books, gentry families in southern English villages and towns negotiate marriage, money, and self-knowledge. Young women misread suitors and neighbours; landed men, clergymen, sailors, and widows form the social field. Each novel is a self-contained comedy of manners. The collection is the core fictional work, not the juvenile writings or unfinished Sanditon, presented as a single author's completed novel sequence.
