The range of the contributors leaves the reader with a sense of how important Austen is to writers in particular, who see in her not simply an antecedent or role model but as an old friend who, with constancy and wit, is always there during those transitional moments in life--the very moments that Austen herself wrote about with such precision. A loving tribute to a legendary author whose work continues to resonate in the current day. -- Kirkus Reviews

As we mark the 250th birthday of one of literature's most beloved authors, this highly original collection celebrates the enduring influence of Jane Austen's works. With an insightful introduction by academic and author Professor Jennie Batchelor, 30 + contributors--including acclaimed writers, scholars, and artists--share how Austen's timeless storytelling has shaped their own journeys.

A heartfelt tribute to the writer whose wit, wisdom and charm continue to captivate audiences across generations. Featuring contributions from classic and contemporary authors including April de Angelis, Mary Hamer, Natalie Jenner, Martin Jennings, Charlie Lovett, Katherine Reay, Talulah Riley, Julia Quinn, Edna St Vincent Millay, Sara Teasdale, Janet Todd, Zita Holbourne and more.
