I am reviewing a copy of Jane Austen: A Literary Celebrity through Nelson Books, Thomas Nelson and Netgalley:
Jane Austen is now what she never was in life, and would have been horrified to become a literary celebrity. “Janeia” is the author’s term for the mania for all things Austen. Dive into Jane Austen: A Literary Celebrity and discover:
how it all began and Austen’s love of poetry,her early masterpieces and the inspiration behind the stories,her road to getting published and the health decline that led to her death.
This updated edition of Jane Austen: A Literary Celebrity, offers discussion questions that work well with book clubs and ELA lesson plans. This biography is perfect for: Jane Austen fans and collectors men and women who have enjoyed Austen-inspired films and TV series adaptations
anyone interested in learning about the varied sides of Austen’s character and the characters she created.
If you are looking for a deep delve into Jane’s Austen’s life this is not that, but it showcases how her legend has grown larger than life in the centuries following her death.
I give Jane Austen: A Literary Celebrity five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
