A collection of BBC radio full-cast dramatisations of Jane Austen's six major novels Jane Austen is one of the finest writers in the English language, and this volume includes all six of her classic novels.
Mansfield Park: On a quest to find a position in society, Fanny Price goes to live with her rich aunt and uncle.
Northanger Abbey: Young, naïve Catherine Morland receives an invitation to stay at the isolated Gothic mansion Northanger Abbey.
Sense and Sensibility: Forced to leave their family home after their father's death, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood try to forge a new life at Barton Cottage.
Pride and Prejudice: Mrs Bennet is determined to get her five daughters married well, so when the wealthy Mr Bingley and his friend Mr Darcy move into the neighbourhood her hopes are raised...
Emma: Emma Woodhouse declares she will never marry, but she is determined to find a match for her friend Harriet.
Persuasion: Eight years ago, Anne Elliot rejected a marriage proposal from a handsome but poor naval officer. Now her former love has returned...
With an all-star cast including David Tennant, Benedict Cumberbatch, Julia McKenzie, Jenny Agutter, Toby Jones, Eve Best and Juliet Stevenson, these BBC radio adaptations are full of humour, romance, love lost and love regained.
Although Austen's heroines underwent adventures, Jane herself led an uneventful life. She did once accept a proposal of marriage one evening, only to change her mind the following morning! For the most part it was a quiet family life interspersed with outings to Bath, London and Lyme. Her novels were written in the intervals between family excursions, although not in the order in which they were published. Sense and Sensibility (published in 1811) was originally written in 1795 as Elinor and Marianne. Pride and Prejudice (published in 1813) began life as 'First Impressions' in 1797. Of her other novels, Mansfield Park was published in 1814, Emma in 1816 and Persuasion posthumously in 1818.
Throughout her life Jane kept up regular correspondences with her sister Cassandra, her friends and her nieces and nephews. Although Cassandra removed anything deeply personal from these letters after Jane's death, they tell of her attitude to her work, describing it as 'the little bit (two inches wide) of Ivory on which I work with so fine a brush, as produces little effect after much labour'. This modest assessment was not shared by Sir Walter Scott or by the Prince Regent, who kept a set of her novels in each of his residences.
The Austens moved several times during the course of Jane's life: in 1801 they left Steventon for Bath. After George Austen's death in 1805 they moved to Southampton and then, in 1809, to Chawton. In the weeks prior to her death, Jane lodged in Winchester in order to be close to her doctor. Her illness has been attributed to several possible conditions, including Addison's disease (a disorder of the
Jane Austen's novels have acquired a following which is almost cult-like, and the many dramatisations of her work for screen, television and radio are testament to the books' enduring popularity. One of her works was amongst the earliest transmissions to be heard on BBC radio: a reading of the proposal scene from Pride and Prejudice was broadcast on 15 January 1924.

Mit dieser Hörbuch-Box haben BBC und Penguin Random House ein wirklich grandioses Werk zusammengestellt.
Die wohl 6 bekanntesten Werke Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Sense and Sensibility, Northanger Abbey, Persuasion und Emma sind auf insgesamt 15 CDs ein absoluter Hörgenuss. BBC ist ja schon fast ein Garant für gute Produktionen. Diese BBC Radio Adaptionen sind gefüllt mit Humor, verlorener Liebe, Romantik und wiedergefundener Liebe.
Jeder einzelne Roman ist akustisch wunderbar inszeniert.
Die Sprecher sind ideal auf ihre Rollen abgestimmt und bezaubern mit einem herrlichen britischen Englisch, dem man sehr gut folgen kann.
Beispielsweise Benedict Cumberbatch, David Tennant, Juliet Stevenson oder auch Julia McKenzie hauchen den jeweiligen Charakteren gekonnt Leben ein.
Passend dazu erwecken Musik und zahlreichen Umgebungs- bzw. Nebengeräusche die Erzählungen vor dem inneren Auge zum Leben.
Diese besondere Sammlung der Jane Austen Werke als Hörspiel hat mich absolut überzeugt und ich kann sie nur jeden Freund von Jane Austen ans Herz legen.
