Jane Austen - Sanditon

A couple from the seaside resort of Sandition get into a carriage accident near the home of Charlotte, our heroine. Charlotte's family helps them and nurses Mr. Parker who sprains his ankle. In return they take Charlotte back with them to Sandition to give her a nice holiday. Sandition, although it remained unfinished, is truly Jane Austen at her funniest. A comedy, it continues the strain of burlesque and caricature she wrote as a teenager and in private throughout her life.
