The Worlds of Jane Austen invites readers to see one of Britain's most beloved authors in a completely new light. Far from the quiet world of country houses and tea parties, Austen lived through revolution, war and major social change, and her sharp, observant fiction reveals just how engaged she was with the issues of her time.
This lively and accessible guide explores the people, politics and places that shaped Austen's life and work. It features expert insight from bestselling author Helena Kelly alongside over 150 photographs, artworks and illustrations that bring her world vividly to life.
Whether you are discovering Austen for the first time or returning to her novels with fresh eyes, The Worlds of Jane Austen is the perfect companion for curious readers, literature lovers and admirers of classic storytelling.
Helena Kelly holds a doctorate in English Literature from Oxford, where she has also taught from time to time and where she is about to return for a visiting scholarship at the Oxford Centre for Life Writing at Wolfson College.
She is the author of The Life and Lies of Charles Dickens (November 2023), already praised by Kirkus Reviews as 'a literary bio that deftly untangles truth from untruth', and of Jane Austen, the Secret Radical (2016), hailed as 'a sublime piece of literary detective work' (The Observer) and 'an interpretive coup that is dazzling and dizzying' (The New Yorker).
