Jane Austen, one of the nation’s most beloved authors, whose face adorns our currency, surely needs no introduction, but while many are familiar with her groundbreaking novels, few have come across the brilliantly funny short tales she wrote when young.This collection pulls together two of the teenage Austen’s short ‘deceits’ – in which secret plans and gossip are bandied about like currency. Published only in 1933, ‘The Three Sisters’ is considered by many to be the prototype for Pride and Prejudice.
