Charlotte Heywood is privileged to accompany Mr and Mrs Parker to their home in Sanditon – not least because, they assure her, it is soon to become the fashionable epicentre of society summers. Finding the town all but deserted, she is party to the machinations of her socially mobile hosts in their attempts to gather a respectable crowd, and Austen assembles a classic cast of characters of varying degrees of absurdity of sense.

The last of Austen’s fiction works, written in the year before her death, Sanditon affords a glimpse of the ultimate creative powers and preoccupations of one of the greatest figures in English literature.
