Love And Freindship by Jane Austen

and Other Youthful Writings

A witty, epistolary parody of sentimental novels in which a young heroine narrates a chain of absurdly impulsive love affairs, hasty marriages, sudden duels and deaths, and absurd reversals of fortune; its exaggerated coincidences and comic hyperbole lampoon naïve passion and the conventions of popular romance, producing sharp satire through playful melodrama.

The 16703rd greatest book of all time
