    Yours Affectionately, Jane Austen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 534min
    Was Mr. Darcy real? Is time travel really possible? For pragmatic Manhattan artist Eliza Knight the answer to both questions is absolutely, Yes! And Fitzwilliam Darcy of Pemberley Farms, Virginia is the reason why! His tale of love and romance in Regency England leaves Eliza in no doubt that Fitz Darcy is the embodiment of Jane Austen’s legendary hero. And she’s falling in love with him. But can the man who loved the inimitable Jane Austen ever love average, ordinary Eliza Knight? Eliza’s doubts grow, perhaps out of proportion, when things start to happen in the quiet hamlet of Chawton, England; events that could change everything. Will the beloved author become the wedge that divides Fitz and Eliza or the tie that binds them? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kendra Hoffman.

    Jane Austen at Home: A Biography , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 855min
    Take a trip back to Jane Austen's world and the many places she lived as historian Lucy Worsley visits Austen's childhood home, her schools, her holiday accommodations, the houses - both grand and small - of the relations upon whom she was dependent, and the home she shared with her mother and sister towards the end of her life. In places like Steventon Parsonage, Godmersham Park, Chawton House and a small rented house in Winchester, Worsley discovers a Jane Austen very different from the one who famously lived a "life without incident". Worsley examines the rooms, spaces and possessions which mattered to her, and the varying ways in which homes are used in her novels as both places of pleasure and as prisons. She shows listeners a passionate Jane Austen who fought for her freedom, a woman who had at least five marriage prospects, but - in the end - a woman who refused to settle for anything less than Mr. Darcy. Lucy Worsley's Jane Austen at Home is a richly entertaining and illuminating new audiobook about one of the world's favorite novelists and one of the subjects she returned to over and over in her unforgettable novels: home. ungekürzt.

    Jane & Me: My Austen Heritage , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 523min
    Caroline Jane Knight is the last of the Austen Knight family to grow up at Chawton House, the sixteenth-century English manor house on the ancestral estate where Jane Austen lived and wrote. Caroline ate at the same dining table, read in the same library, explored the same country lanes and shared the same dreams of independence as Jane Austen did. But when she was seventeen, Caroline and her family were forced to leave the home her family had lived in for centuries. Heartbroken and determined to leave all things Austen behind her, this is the story of Caroline's journey from an idyllic childhood in which she baked cakes with her Granny for Jane Austen tourists, through personal crisis and success to her eventual embrace of her Austen heritage and the creation of the Jane Austen Literacy Foundation. A contemporary and dramatic story, it is also a major contribution to the library of works about Jane Austen, including information thrillingly new to Jane Austen's readers and scholars. Read by award-winning narrator Alison Larkin whose critically acclaimed recordings of the novels of Jane Austen include Pride and Prejudice and Songs from Regency England, Persuasion and Poems, Northanger Abbey and the History of England and Emma - the 200th anniversary audio edition. Fifteen per cent of the profits from the sale of this book will be donated to the Jane Austen Literacy Foundation. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alison Larkin.

    Emma: By Jane Austen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 971min
    Emma, by Jane Austen, is a novel about youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued romance. The story takes place in the fictional village of Highbury and the surrounding estates of Hartfield, Randalls, and Donwell Abbey and involves the relationships among individuals in those locations consisting of "Three or four families in a country village".  The novel was first published in December 1815 while the author was alive, with its title page listing a publication date of 1816. As in her other novels, Austen explores the concerns and difficulties of genteel women living in Georgian-Regency England; she also creates a lively comedy of manners among her characters and depicts issues of marriage, gender, age, and social status.  Before she began the novel, Austen wrote, "I am going to take a heroine whom no one but myself will much like." In the first sentence, she introduces the title character as "Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich."  Emma is spoiled, headstrong, and self-satisfied; she greatly overestimates her own matchmaking abilities; she is blind to the dangers of meddling in other people's lives; and her imagination and perceptions often lead her astray.  Persuasion was the last novel Austen wrote, and it was published after her death. Emma was the last novel to be completed and published while she lived in Chawton. This novel has been adapted for several films, many television programs, and a long list of stage plays. It is also the inspiration for several novels. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Moira Fogarty. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/118641/bk_acx0_118641_sample.mp3.

    Jane Austen: The True Story of the Life and Times of the Great Author (Great Author Biographies) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 41min
    Do you want to learn more about the great author Jane Austen, but don’t have time to read huge, long biographies? Then let The History Journals take you on an hourly history tour of his life.Ever since Jane Austen’s first published novel Sense and Sensibility appeared anonymously in November 1811, the “lady” and her writing have proved to be enduringly popular. Although considered by some to be the province of academia, her characters and plots are often echoed in modern drama, with her favored themes of love, marriage, and money as relevant today as in the 19th century.Jane herself has become a posthumous celebrity, despite only ever completing six novels, and it’s unbelievable that her quiet, short and seemingly uneventful life as the daughter of a country parson gave her such a remarkable understanding of human nature, still pertinent over two hundred years after her death. She truly was an extraordinary woman, often overshadowed by her immortal characters. Her own story is equally as fascinating as any she wrote, set against a background of one of the most exciting periods in English history. In this book, you will learn about her life beginning to end.Includes links for more in-depth research You will learn about:Family, birth, early years, sister Cassandra, all the brothers.Early writings, marriage proposals, a trip to Bath, seaside pleasures.Dire finances, away to Southampton but then to Chawton Village; the happy years.Sense and Sensibility, success, Pride and Prejudice.Further family tragedies and the growing fame of our writer, Mansfield Park.Persuasion, illness, death in Winchester.
