Is there any sex in Austen? Which important Austen characters never speak? John Mullan shows that you can best appreciate Jane Austen's brilliance by asking and answering some very specific questions about what goes on in her novels. What Matters in Jane Austen? explores the rituals and conventions of her fictional world and uses biographical detail and telling passages from her letters to explain episodes in her novels. An unmissable event for those who love Jane Austen's work.
John Mullan is Professor of English at UCL and weekly columnist for The Guardian.
