The Observer Celebrates Jane Austen’s 10 Best Characters—in Pictures
Apparently it’s the bicentenary of Pride & Prejudice—two hundred years: how amazing is that?
And yes, I will put my hand up with all the other authors out there who would love Jane Austen’s longevity. 😉 Actually, I would also love to match her keen eye for the foibles and eccentricities of human nature, as well as her skill in presenting it all without “moral commentary.”
I think the “10 Best Characters”—in pictures—selected by Austen biographer Paula Byrne for The Observer well reflects that keen eye. And no clues as to “who” is included: I think to properly appreciate you need to click through and check out the 10 characters for yourself.
So without further ado—click to read The 10 Best Jane Austen Characters – in Pictures
But here’s a question for you: is this your ’10 Best’ as well, or is there another (or several) Austen characters you would prefer over those listed?
