1935 Jane Austen by Lord David Cecil - Vintage Book

In excellent condition, here is a vintage paperback copy of Jane Austen by Lord David Cecil. Being The Leslie Stephen lecture delivered before the University of Cambridge in 1 May, 1935. Published by the University Press that year.

It’s a 44‑page critical essay, not a biography or a survey of scholarship. A polished, elegant lecture capturing how one of the leading literary critics of the early 20th century understood Austen’s art.

Inside the pages are clean and tightly bound with no writing or markings of previous ownership.

Paper covers have tanned a little, otherwise also in top order.

Your vintage copy of Lord David Cecil's Jane Austen will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to include a gift card with a message in the parcel.
