The Three Sisters and Other Stories

With handsome rich men and ladies of leisure fluttering their eyelids trying to catch their attention, The Three Sisters reads like a humorous trial run for Pride and Prejudice.

Told via correspondence, this is in fact a tale of a single man, Mr. Watts, who is in possession of a good fortune and is in want of a wife. Mrs. Stanhope is the mother of a family of girls who is very much in want of a son-in-law. And the girls? Despite one of them being "the happiest creature on the planet", they arent actually all that happy at all.

This satirical narrative of courtship and self-interest by the young Jane Austen is a must for any fan of the modern Chick-Lit novel or Rom-Com film.

As an extra treat, this edition includes four additional writings from Jane Austen, making this essential reading for any Austen fan or study. These additional pieces include:

•A Fragment written to inculcate the practice of Virtue

•A beautiful description of the different effects of sensibility on different minds

•The Generous Curate: A moral Tale, setting forth the Advantages of being Generous and a Curate.

•Ode to Pity
