Re: Favourite Jane Austin novel
What's your favourite completed novel by Ms Austin.
This used to be one of my favorite pick-up lines in my salad days. It quickly weeds out the dolts. But to answer your question: I always like Persuasion because of its sense of redemption. I also like Pride and Prejudice for the same reason; also for its conversations and its wit. Emma I think has the most to say on the modern topic of women and their roles in society. In many ways, Mansfield Park is the most skillfully constructed and written, but something of a downer to read and its moral conventions are difficult to understand in modern terms. Northanger Abbey is a good early effort. Sense and Sensibility is basically silly and my least favorite--I only read it every few years or so. Difficult to decide. Depends on my mood, I guess.

Re: Favourite Jane Austin novel
Ummm, wasn't the movie Clueless based on Emma? I guess I'll vote for that since it's the closest I've come to actually reading one of her books.
My gf basically majored in Jane Austen, so maybe I can get her to make a guest appearance, assuming this thread is serious. -- Homer

I can't believe I forgot to include Emma in my list. There's also another unfinished novel, apart from Sanditon, by Jane Austin but I can't remember its title.
