Her \u003cbr\u003e\nnovels don't confine themselves to grand houses and they were not \u003cbr\u003e\nwritten just for readers' enjoyment. She writes about serious subjects \u003cbr\u003e\nand her books are deeply subversive. We just don't read her properly - \u003cbr\u003e\nwe haven't been reading her properly for 200 years.and    \u003cbr\u003e\n  Jane Austen, The Secret Radical puts that right.
