The Watsons, Sanditon by Jane AustenThe Watsons, Sanditon by Jane Austenby Jane Austen

One abandoned, one unfinished, these short works show Austen equally at home with romance (a widowed clergyman with four daughters must needs be in search of a husband or two in The Watsons) and with social change (a new, commercial seaside resort in Sanditon). Typically touching, funny, charming and sharp.

unabridged and read by Anna Bentinck.
