Sanditon is a fictitious place on England's south coast and the obsession of local landowner Mr Thomas Parker. He means to transform this humble fishing village into a fashionable health resort to rival its famous neighbours of Brighton and Eastbourne. In this, her final, unfinished work, the writer sets aside her familiar subject matter, the country village with its settled community, for the transient and eccentric assortment of people who drift to the new resort, the town built upon sand. If the ground beneath her characters' feet appears less secure, Austen's own vision is opening out. Light and funny, Sanditon is her most experimental and poignant work.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBBook Series: Oxford World's ClassicsGenre: Literary CriticismTopic: Classic Fiction, FictionAuthor: Jane AustenItem Weight: 102gRelease Year: 2019 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
