Lady Susan by Jane Austen, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Written by Jane Austen in her late teens or early twenties and published long after her death, this short novel in letters centres on Lady Susan Vernon, a beautiful, clever and utterly unscrupulous widow. While seeking husbands for herself and her daughter, she manipulates everyone around her. Witty and wicked, it shows a very different side of Austen.
About this leather-bound edition
Each copy is bound by hand in genuine leather over sturdy boards, with decorative tooling and gold-tone foil lettering on the spine. Natural variation in grain, shade and foil impression is part of the character of every handmade book, so no two copies are exactly alike.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
