A delightful collection of Jane Austen''s wittiest insights, taken from her celebrated novels and letters. Lauded for her eloquence, observation and wry humour, Jane Austen was a novelist who was highly regarded and greatly celebrated in her own time. However, her appeal is as great as ever, and her insights remain as fresh and relevant today as when they were first published. This delightful volume offers thematic extracts from her fiction and correspondence, featuring quotes from such novels as Emma, Northanger Abbey, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park and Persuasion, alongside extracts from Austen''s letters to her sister and confidante, Cassandra. Containing a host of quotations displaying Austen''s sharp - indeed, often wicked - wit, this wonderful treasury will be enjoyed by fans of the author as well as readers who are new to her writing.

Sobre el matrimonio: "Preferiría ser pobre y soltera; que reina y casada." Reina Isabel I de Inglaterra Sobre la vida: "No es cierto que la vida sea una maldita cosa después de otra... es la misma maldita cosa una y otra vez.." Edna St Vincent Millay No es éste un libro sólo para mujeres... ni sólo para hombres. Ni mucho menos, porque tiene algo que atrae a todo el mundo, algo que va desde las inteligentes frases sobre la vida o el amor, hasta los perversos comentarios sobre las amistades o sobre determinadas figuras públicas, pasando por ingeniosos conceptos sobre política o sociedad... Todas las citas del libro tienen dos cosas en común: su brillantez y el hecho de que todas ellas proceden de mujeres. En esta colección de las frases más inteligentes y más ingeniosas pronunciadas por mujeres desde el siglo VI antes de Cristo hasta nuestros días; desde la antigua Grecia, pasando por el Japón del siglo X, hasta llegar a los Estados Unidos del siglo XX, hay pocos detalles que apunten que se trata de citas del supuestamente "sexo débil"... exceptuando, quizás, una tendencia a subrayar la no superioridad de los hombres, en medio de una atractiva exhibición de cabezas muy bien amuebladas, inteligencias mordaces y, a veces, lenguas muy afiladas.
