Through her works, readers are acquainted with the nuances of the social hierarchies and the ironies of their lifestyles. Hers are works fed by the intuitive observation of a clever mind that make the critique of the social arrangement quite impossible to ignore. Her deep understanding of the human nature makes her comments on human desires and tendencies relevant to this day. The Defnitive Jane Austen is divided into three parts. The frst part contains two of her most famous works from her diaries (now referred to as Juvenilia), written prior to her career as a novelist.
