Collins Classics brings you a selection of the best-loved novels by Jane Austen, including 'Pride and Prejudice' which, in 2013, celebrates the 200th anniversary of its publication.

Complete with a Life & Times section, which offers insight into the author, her works and the time of publication, and a handy glossary adapted from the Collins English Dictionary, this Collins Classics Collection will enhance your reading experience of Jane Austen's novels.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE: Austen's best-loved tale of love, marriage and society in class-conscious Georgian England still delights modern readers today with its comedy and characters.

SENSE AND SENSIBILITY: Spirited and impulsive, Marianne Dashwood is the complete opposite to her controlled and sensible sister, Elinor. It is through their shared experiences of love that both sisters come to learn that the key to a successful match comes from finding the perfect mixture of rationality and feeling.

EMMA: Beautiful, rich, self-assured and witty, Emma Woodhouse delights in match-making those around her, with no apparent care for her own romantic life. Delightful, engaging and entertaining, Emma is arguably Austen's most well-loved social comedy.

NORTHANGER ABBEY: A coming-of-age novel, Austen expertly parodies the Gothic romance novels of her time and reveals much about her unsentimental view of love and marriage in the eighteenth century.
