Get to know Jane Austen’s Lady Susan #loveandfriendship

May 19, 2016 by Elizabeth

Thank you to Roadside Attractions for this sponsored post and giveaway.

Lady Susan is one of Austen’s unforgettable characters. Sharp-tongued, witty and intelligent, charming to men and annoying to women, she lives off her rich friends and relations, drifting from one house to the next. Her poor daughter has run away from her expensive boarding school, and her mother is determined to make her marry well–and find herself a new husband to boot. Lady Susan was one of Austen’s early creations, coming to life through a series of letters that compose a short novella which was never published in Austen’s lifetime. In fact, the title of the novella, Lady Susan, is itself a later creation. Now, the character is finding new life in Whit Stillman’s Love & Friendship, opening in select theaters this week.
