jane

recently, my sister and i have been watching our way through the novel-to-movie adaptations of jane austen's classics.

i've been inspired to pick up the originals, starting with mansfield park, "a subtle examination of social position and moral integrity, [and] one of jane austen's most profound works," and following that with northanger abbey, which "with its broad comedy and irrepresisible heroine, is the most youthful and optimistic of jane austen's works."

i highly recommend both.
