Více o knize

Lady Susan is an epistolary novella by Jane Austen. Lady Susan Vernon, a beautiful and charming recent widow, visits her brother-in-law and his wife, Charles and Catherine Vernon, with little advance notice at Churchill, their country residence. Catherine is far from pleased, as Lady Susan had tried to prevent her marriage to Charles and her unwanted guest has been described to her as „the most accomplished coquette in England“. Among Lady Susan's conquests is the married Mr. Manwaring.
