Reading this book was torture! Its only redeeming quality is that it was so short. I'm likely in the minority, but I'm totally new to Jane Austen. I must confess that if this novella is a representation of her longers novels, then I shall abstain from reading any of her others.
Far too many characters for the number of pages. Writing is too formal, though I suspect this is representative of all writing of that era.
