Amour et amitié French Translation of Love and Friendship

by Jane Austen, Margaux Delacourt (Translator)

Overview

'Dans ce récit délicieusement satirique, une jeune Jane Austen laisse libre cours à son esprit. Love and Friendship suit les mésaventures scandaleuses de Laura, une héroïne qui s'auto-dramatise et dont les escapades romantiques défient toute logique et tout décorum. Rédigé sous la forme d'une série de lettres pleines d'entrain, ce premier ouvrage parodie les romans sentimentaux de l'époque d'Austen, offrant un aperçu hilarant des absurdités de l'amour, de l'amitié et de la folie juvénile. Incontournable pour les fans d'Austen, cette novella révèle l'humour acerbe et le commentaire social intelligent qui caractériseront ses chefs-d'œuvre ultérieurs.

About the Author

Jane Austen (1775–1817) was an English author known primarily for her six major novels set among the British landed gentry at the end of the 18th century. Considered defining works of the Regency Era and counted among the best–loved classics of English literature, Austen's books include Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion. The latter two were published after her death. "I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library." – Jane Austen
