Esta novela epistolar, escrita probablemente en 1794, narra los planes de la protagonista, la recientemente viuda lady Susan, para encontrar un nuevo marido, a la vez que intenta casar a su hija de diecisis aos. Austen se sirve de este gnero para construir una obra en donde las distintas cartas se engarzan como piezas de un rompecabezas hasta completar ante los ojos del lector una historia de pequeas intrigas. La obra subvierte todas las normas de la novela romntica: lady Susan tiene un papel activo; no slo es hermosa, sino tambin inteligente e ingeniosa, y sus pretendientes son significativamente ms jvenes que ella. Hay escritores que nos gustan, escritores a los que admiramos y escritores a los que quisimos desde el primer prrafo del primer libro suyo que nos tuvo entre sus manos. Escritores entraables cuyas historias se vuelven parte de las nuestras. Jane Austen es una de ellos.
