The Life and Works of Jane Austen

Sanditon and Austen's Unfinished Fiction (1x22)

Fecha de emisión: Ene 29, 2021

As Jane Austen’s health declined near the end of her life, she continued to work on a manuscript that she would never finish: a would-be seventh novel entitled Sanditon, which satirized health fads and introduced new complexities of character into her fiction. Despite only consisting of 11 incomplete chapters, this unfinished work nevertheless shows us a novelist at the height of her powers.
