To celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday, The Folio Society has announced The Complete Novels by Jane Austen - a landmark, six-volume limited edition of all six of Austen’s major works. The new set is encased in delicately woven, silk-and-cotton covers and reimagined with breathtaking colour illustrations. Housed in a specially designed box, this edition is the definitive tribute to Jane Austen’s literary legacy.
