More than 200 years after Jane Austen's death at the age of just 41, we are still looking for clues about this extraordinary writer's life. 

Among objects described in the book are a teenage notebook, a wallpaper fragment, the dining-room grate at Chawton Cottage where she lived, and even Mr Darcy's wet shirt!

This is a different kind of biography, in which objects with their own histories offer shifting entry points into Jane Austen's life.

Kathryn Sutherland is Senior Research Fellow, St Anne's College, Oxford.

Printed in the UK.

Hardback, 17cm x 22cm, 204 pages.

Just want to thank you so much for wrapping the Christmas Chawton Bauble so well!  I was a bit concerned it might arrive damaged; but no. It was perfectly protected. Cannot wait for Christmas!

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!
