Jane Austen Reimagined

The popularity of Jane Austen's works has inspired authors to write sequels, prequels and companion novels to her works.  In addition, the author herself appears as a character in several novels, most notably in Stephanie Barron's Jane Austen Mystery series.

	Jane Austen. Emma Austen perceptively and comically reveals to the reader the life of the English countryside, with its social nuance and mischievousness and most masterfully elevates "the trivialities of day-to-day existence, of parties, picnics, and country dances", (Virginia Woolf). At the center of this world is her inimitable character, Emma Woodhouse, a self-proclaimed matchmaker who just may find herself the victim of her own best intentions.
	Joan Aiken. Jane Fairfax presents the story of Jane Faixfax, Emma's rival as well as a complex young woman with desires and an emotional life of her own.
	Joan Austen-Leigh. A Visit to Highbury: Another View of Emma The great-great-grandniece of Jane Austen offers a delightful and refreshing visit with some of the classic characters from Austen's famous novel Emma, giving a parallel view of Highbury through the eyes of the local schoolmistress.
	Jane Gillespie. Aunt Celia A spinoff of Emma centering around minor character Frank Churchill and his sister Celia, the title character.

	Jane Austen. Mansfield Park A poor relation adopted into a wealthy family, Fanny Price has only her good nature as a weapon in the battle to win the heart of the man she loves. In "Mansfield Park," a sequel of sorts to Pride and Prejudice, Austen at once challenges and embraces the mores of the day as only she can.

	Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice A headstrong young woman and her aristocratic suitor must overcome their respective impediments to a happy ending--his pride must be humbled and her prejudice dissolved.

	Jane Gillespie. Teverton Hall Mr. Dallow becomes Mr. Collin's patron in this sequel to Pride and Prejudice.
