Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Book of Sibyls Not long ago, a party of friends were sitting at luncheon in a suburb of London, when one of them happened to make some reference to Maple Grove and Selina, and to ask in what county of England Maple Grove was situated. Everybody immediately had a theory. Only one of the company (a French gentleman, not well acquainted with English) did not recognise the allusion. A lady sitting by.the master of the house (she will, I hope, forgive me for quoting her words, for no one else has a better right to speak them) said, ´What a curious sign it is of Jane Austen´s increasing popularity! Here are five out of six people sitting round a table, nearly a hundred years after her death, who all recognise at once a chance allusion to an obscure character in one of her books.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
