From the number one bestselling author of Miss Austen, a powerful and moving novel featuring Jane Austen's closest friend and confidante...

'So envious of anyone yet to read this. A triumph!' Nigella Lawson
'Thoroughly entertaining, Godmersham Park has some of the same understated wit and sharp observation as Austen's novels' Sunday Times

Early evening, 1804: Anne Sharpe arrives at Godmersham Park in Kent. Alone and desperately in need of an independent income, she is to become a governess to twelve-year-old Fanny Austen. But her new role in this large household where she is neither a servant nor a member of the family is an awkward one, and Anne is keenly aware that one wrong move may result in her instant dismissal.

Then dashing Henry Austen and his younger sister Jane come to stay. Both take an immediate interest in the pretty, clever governess, and Anne quickly becomes drawn into the above-stairs life of the Austen family. Soon, and despite her best efforts, she finds she is falling in love. But has her survival at Godmersham Park just become a good deal more precarious?

This is a paperback edition of Gill Hornby's absorbing and illuminating new novel.

I ordered a little teapot and guidebook from your gift shop.  I live in the United States and was nervous about the teapot arriving in one piece!  I received both items today and they are in perfect condition.  The gifts are for my sister’s birthday and she will love them.  Thank-you so much!
