In the last two years of her life, Jane Austen wrote five letters to her niece Fanny Knight that combined true affection, detached analysis, and rare good sense. Austen scholar Janet Todd characterized Jane’s role as an “agony aunt” who dispensed sympathetic advice to a motherless teenager with lines that are now “Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor—which is one very strong argument in favor of matrimony.”___1st Edition 1924. Limited edition of 250 copies.
