Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet, Gwyneth Paltrow as Emma and Colin
Firth as Mr. Darcyonscreen Jane Austen gets us every time. But starlets
and silver screen hunks arent the only reasons to revisit the classics.
The Winchester
Austen collection includes the famed authors six tomes in a modern,
gentle-on-the-eyes typeface, each with an introduction by a renowned
Austen scholar.
There are also colour timelines of Austens world, maps of her England
and illustrated sections focusing on a main theme in each story (regency
fashion in Emma and the church in Mansfield Park, for
example).
Sold separately (from $12.99 each) the journal-like simple black covers
with soft cursive writing and an elastic closure are lovely on their
own, or look delightful as a set.
Now back to Mr. Darcy.
