Summary
Summary
In this delightful double bill, narrator Alison Larkin’s AudioFile Earphones Award–winning recording of Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice are followed by songs from Regency England to give listeners a sense of what after-dinner family entertainment might have sounded like in Jane Austen’s time.
Recorded in a drawing room not unlike the Bennets’, a young lady who sounds suspiciously like Mary Bennet sings “The Lonely Ash Grove,” “Ye Banks and Braes,” and “Down by the Salley Gardens.”

Author Bio: Jane Austen
Jane Austen (1775–1817) is considered by many scholars to be the first great woman novelist. Born in Steventon, England, she later moved to Bath and began to write for her own and her family’s amusement. Her novels, set in her own English countryside, depict the daily lives of provincial middle-class families with wry observation, a delicate irony, and a good-humored wit.
