Illustrated with two sections of color plates, Lucy Worsley's Jane Austen at Home is a richly entertaining and illuminating new book about one of the world’s favorite novelists and one of the subjects she returned to over and over in her unforgettable novels: home.

The young man was tall, taller even than Lena. On the landing stood the great-grandson of Uncle Vanya’s old friend, Dima. A florist leaned over a vase heavy with the lilacs Ethel could smell from across the room. At the top, a bar glittered with champagne. “I suppose with the right man, anyone would like that bath,” Lena said. Another woman might have been embarrassed, but not her Lena.
