Klappentext
A box set of 50 postcards, each featuring a classic Jane Austen cover design from Penguin
From the first Penguin edition of Pride and Prejudice in 1938, with its glorious woodcut illustrations, to a special wartime Northanger Abbey published to provide troops with comforting reading material; and from the Clothbound Classics covers designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith to a brand-new edition of Jane Austen's juvenilia from 2025, here is a celebration of ten decades of publishing history and design heritage, and one of the world's most beloved authors.
Publishing in Jane Austen's 250^th^ anniversary year, this box of postcards will make the perfect gift for both lovers of Austen and fans of classic book design.
Biografie
Born in 1775, Jane Austen published her many novels anonymously. Her work was not widely read until the late nineteenth century, and her fame only continued to grow from there. Known for her wit and sharp insight into social conventions, her novels about love, relationships, and society grow more popular year after year. She has earned her place in history as one of the most cherished writers in English literature.
