There is much to enjoy in this book ... it's the quality of the insights and the interpretations that make this book such a good read.' Sunday Telegraph
'Harman is particularly good on how writing became the centre of [Jane's] life...this fascinating and sophisticated take on Jane Mania is a sparkling addition to the canon' Evening Standard
