The Beautifull Cassandra by Jane Austen
A brief, comic sketch follows a high-spirited young heroine who, in playful parody of sentimental fiction, sets off on a series of increasingly absurd adventures—buying a new gown, rescuing and being rescued, dueling, being kidnapped and escaping—each episode heightening the mock-heroic tone and gently satirizing the conventions of fashionable novels.
