Written when Jane Austen was just fourteen years old, 'LOve and Freindship' foreshadows the conflict between moral obligation and individual desire which animates the author's mature books. Now reworked in this sparkling satire, the story follows Isabel and her daughter Marianne when they attend the theatre in Bury St Edmunds. There, they encounter Isabel's old friend Laura, who gives Marianne her journal - which proves a revelation to the younger woman as she reads of one madcap romantic escapade after another. There is love at first sight, marriage the same day, exaggerated sentiment - and complete disregard for the feelings of others.
