描述
Sous le vernis d'un genre, chacune des phrases de Jane Austen attaque les conventions, traque les ridicules, et finit avec une grâce exquise par pulvériser la morale bourgeoise, sans avoir l'air d'y toucher. Les héroïnes de Jane Austen lui ressemblent, elles aiment les potins mais détestent bavardages, grossièreté et vulgarité. La pudeur, le tact, la discrétion, l'humour sont les seules convenances qu'elles reconnaissent... Et si Jane Austen mène les jeunes filles au mariage, c'est fortes d'une telle indépendance qu'il faut souhaiter au mari d'être à la hauteur ! A lire yeux baissés et genoux serrés pour goûter en secret le délicieux plaisir de la transgression des interdits.

I have never any of Jane Austen's work prior to this and so I had no idea what was is store for me. I have always enjoyed English literature so i figured this would not not be hard to go through. Oh dear was I wrong. It felt as if I was actually preparing for an English literature exam. This was one of the hardest books I ever had to read. I found that I had to be reading over paragraphs several times so as to be able to understand what was being said. Despite the difficulties encountered I found it to be quite an interesting read. I am glad that I persevered as it was worth it in the end.
