“Where people wish to attach, they should always be ignorant. To come with a well−informed mind is to come with an inability of administering to the vanity of others, which a sensible person would always wish to avoid.”

English writer

Jane Austen was an English writer. She is best known for her six novels, which examine the English landed gentry at the end of the 18th century with irony and close social observation. Her work is admired for the way it interprets and critiques the world it depicts, especially the manners, values, and assumptions of her characters’ social class. The novels remain widely read for their wit and their clear view of relationships, status, and society.
