The Jane Austen SocietyNatalie Jenner
Jane Austen’s incredible writing remains the literary gift that keeps on giving. Jenner’s historical fiction debut is set during World War II in the small English town of Chawton. If that name sounds familiar to Janeites, it’s because Austen briefly called a small cottage in Chawton home. In this novel, the bitter, dying James Knight owns that very cottage as well as a more sizable estate, but he changes his will to disinherit his daughter, Frances, setting the scene for a story that reads like a darker version of an Austen novel. All the moral complexity and acerbic social commentaries are intact as a cast of locals perform a complex dance of love, social position, and gossip that would make Jane proud
