In What Matters in Jane Austen?, John
Mullan
explores Jane Austen s brilliance by looking
at the intriguing quirks and intricacies of her
fiction. By asking and answering some very
specific and apparently superficial questions
about what goes on in her novels, and solving
some of the little puzzles she sets her readers,
he reveals their depth and devilish cleverness.
In twenty short chapters, each of which
answers a key question about the novels,
Mullan
illuminates the themes that matter most to the
workings of Austen s fiction, addressing along
the way such issues as what games people played
and why they had to wear mourning, how they
addressed each other and how wealth was
inherited, who shared bedrooms and who owned
coaches.
What Matters in Jane Austen? explores the
rituals and conventions of Austen s fictional
world in order to reveal her technical virtuosity
and sheer daring as a novelist. Inspired by
an enthusiastic reader s curiosity, based on
a lifetime s study, and written with flair and
insight, it uncovers the hidden truths about
an extraordinary fictional world.
