auria “Hussein” cortes

When Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility was published, her name didn’t appear on the cover. The author byline read “by A Lady.” When her second book, Pride and Prejudice, was published the byline read “by the author of Sense and Sensibility. It wasn’t until her last book (or maybe her second to last) that her name appeared on the book cover.

 This is the information I learned in The Jane Austen Book Club special features section. Although I did rent the movie, you can see the whole movie online. The next book I’ll read is a bio on Jane Austen. Her life story has piqued my interest.
