From Library Journal:
Given the continuing popularity of her novels, these two publications will be of particular interest to new and longtime aficionados of Austen. In her biography, historian Myer dispels the wholly sweet and kind image of Austen as presented in family memoirs by showing evidence of Austen's human frailties and speculating about others. Drawing from family papers and letters and accounts from friends and acquaintances, Myer provides details of not only how Austen looked physically but of her flirtations, dancing, frustrations, etc. Myer focuses primarily on members of the close-knit Austen family. In this context, Myer easily and naturally melds Austen's life and writings, providing speculative conclusions with which readers may not always agree. Editor Selwyn, in association with the Jane Austen Society, has scrupulously prepared a poetry collection representing over 50 pieces of verse written by three generations of the Austen family, including ingenious riddles and charades written for family entertainment. Organized by author, the work includes a complete collection of poems by Jane Austen, although Selwyn notes that it was her brother James who was the most prolific and gifted poet. Selwyn, who took the texts from autograph manuscripts or from the earliest known manuscripts, provides detailed explanatory and textual notes plus a bibliography of original manuscript sources at the end of the collection. Both the biography and the poetry collection are recommended for academic libraries.?Jeris Cassel, Rutgers Univ. Libs., New Brunswick, N.J.
