Jane Austen Novel Crossword Clue Novels & Stories

She wove it carefully into her hair, securing an artful twist that suggested elegance without effort. The final item waited in tissue paper, modest yet precious beyond measure. Her well-worn copy of Pride and Prejudice bore the gentle scars of countless readings, its spine creased from years of seeking comfort in Austen’s wit. She had been clutching this very book the day she first encountered Henry Wynthorne properly, not merely as her parents’ friends’ son, but as a man whose laugh could illuminate an entire room. He had glanced at the cover with genuine curiosity, and she had treasured that moment of shared literary interest ever since. Perhaps tonight, she might finally find the courage

We all nodded and she continue, "Now, does anyone want to read the profound opening of Austen's novel? How about you, Ms. Smith?" I didn't argue and began to read the opening sentence of the novel, "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of good fortune must be in want of a wife." "That's great," she gave a slight clap for my performance, making me feel a bit embarrassed so I slouched into my chair which earned me a few sympathetic smiles from my classmates. She asked, "Do you all understand what Austen meant by this?" Jason raised his hand and spoke, not waiting for her to permit him to speak, "It's exactly what she said. She meant that if a single man was w

"Humm..Sense and..sen-si-bi-li-ty.. by Ja-ne..oh well..Jane Austen. Who's this?" I was looking for some ointments and medicines in the First aid kit. "Are you serious? " "Yeah.. I don't know this author!" "You mean,that you actually READ BOOKS!?" "Sometimes..only if there's a movie adaptation! Who's she?" "Do you know ,the characters Elizabeth Benet or Mr. Fidzwilliam Darcy?" "Who's that?" " Seriously though..haven't you read Pride and Prejudice?" "Hummm i don't know..!"

"Yeah, well, but at this point, I might as well go ahead and finish it. I meant I've already read 97 pages. It'd be a shame to waste them." Emily just shook her head. But Jane hadn't been reading A Tale of Two Cities to irritate Lucy. Or even to prove something to Ms. Reeds. She had been reading it to be worthy of Grace Anderson. Even if she never knew Jane had read it, Jane was still reading it for her. ~*~

It isn't just a house, it's a home; she's made it that way. “You really think that we needed to stop here before we started our tour to Bradburtshire?” asked Nathan as he called out to Jane who was in the bedroom closet packing her bags. “It is not only me who needs clothes and other stuff, Nathan. You are also going to need them. That overnight bag that you have packed in the back of your car, don’t think that I haven’t seen it is not going to cut it. You are going to meet a Lord, however stuffy and funny that might seem to you. A lot of this thing is riding on who is dealing with what. And moreover I don’t think that I should go with you at all,” said Jane as she came in the drawing room w

“I don’t know. You keep everything in such good condition. I’m almost afraid to touch anything in this room.” “I know you’ll be careful with my things.” She nodded and pulled the book off the shelf. “I didn’t know you liked Jane Austen.” “Why not?” She shrugged. “She’s a woman author.” “I’m broad minded enough to think women have a lot to offer society. I enjoy her work.” “This is one of my favorite books. Sense and Sensibility. The story of two sisters who represent two opposing forces: logic and emotion.” He leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms. He seemed to be considering her analysis of the book. “I didn’t think anyone else in Virginia understood that.”

Not wanting to be pedantic, I gave them a moment to come up with the answer on their own. Fawna furrowed her brow, and Adara shook her head. I hoped that one day I might look down on that head from above, as she kneeled before me with my cock in her mouth . . . . Neither knew the answer, so I said, a bit uncertainly, although I was very certain: “Agatha Christie, wasn’t it?” “That’s it,” said Fawna. “At her home in Devon?” asked Adara. I nodded. “At Greenway. Strange name for a house with a poison garden. Greenway.”

“Favorite novelist?” “Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice, before you ask.” “By God, boy!” he exclaimed in glee and clapped his hands. “We have a keeper with this one!” He turned to me again. “Second favorite?” I chewed my lip for a second. “Dickens or Louisa May Alcott. It’s tough, but Alcott might just win out. Her ability to create a whole cast of compelling, lovable characters – not just one or two – is something I’ve yet to find in another writer.”

I blinked at him, sure I’d misheard him because if anyone would agree that I was to blame for all this, it would be him. But then I turned back to his mom, repeating, “Jane? As in Jane Austen, and Pride and Prejudice, and Jane Bennet?” Mrs. Webster’s eyes glittered affectionately. “Wick told you about my naming scheme, huh?” I bobbed my head up and down. “He forgot to mention that your name was Jane though.” “Or probably that his dad’s name is Charles either, I imagine,” she added, motioning toward her husband. I glanced at him, seeing Wick all over his features before it struck me: Charles Bingley had ended up with Jane Bennet in Pride and Prejudice.

"Continue then." I held up my brief notes before facing my classmates. My eyes of course skipping the one in front of me.
