The Bedside, Bathtub & Armchair Companion to Jane Austen
Book (italiano):
Jane Austen is more popular now than ever thanks to a recent spate of films made from her books, including several versions of Pride and Prejudice. This unusual companion book is made up of a variety of short pieces that offer synopses of her books and discussion of early work, her relationship with her publishers, background on customs of the Regency period (with pictures). Also included are parody articles, interviews with the author of The Jane Austen Book Club and the author of a graphic novel of Austen's work; and discussion of Jane in the movies, including the music used in a BBC production. For true enthusiasts, a tour of Austen country is mapped out. The book even contains a quiz and crossword puzzle. The title says it all. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
