Why are we so fascinated with Jane Austens novels? Why is Austen so universally beloved? The essayists in this volume offer their thoughts on the delightful puzzle of Austens popularity. Classic and contemporary writersnovelists, essayists, journalists, scholars, and a filmmakerdiscuss the tricks and treasures of Austens novels, from her witty dialogue, to the arc and sweep of her story lines, to her prescriptions for life and love.Virginia Woolf examines Austens maturation as an artist and speculates on how her writing would have changed had she lived another twenty years, while Anna Quindlen examines the enduring issues of social pressure and gender politics that make Pride and Prejudice as vital today as ever. From Harold Bloom to Martin Amis, Somerset Maugham to Jay McInerney, Eudora Welty to Amy Bloom, each writer reflects on Austens place in both the literary canon and our cultural imagination.
