Jane Austens Style
Jane Austen is renowned for the economy of her art: for the close focus of her romantic plots and the precision of her writing style. Anne Toner pinpoints techniques that are fundamental to the distinctiveness of Austen's fiction, many of which have been little explored to date. Exploring that economy stylistically and structurally, this book traces Austen's keen interest in narrative form.
