Customer Reviews

Irresistably funny!

Jane Austen had an eye for human nature. She understands and she interprets it through this novel. The story is a realistic fairy tale. It wraps around a family of five girls, their eccentric mother, the noninterested father, and the men in their lives. The subtle humor makes it very enjoyable. The realization of human society is touching and provoking all the same. This is a must read. All Jane Austen fans must read.
