Jane Austen
Jane Austen was born in 1775 at the rectory in Steventon, Hampshire, England. She never married and remained at Steventon for the majority of her life. She had four brothers and a sister, Cassandra, with whom she maintained a close relationship throughout her life. Her close family ties and quiet lifestyle gave her the insight she needed to write her novels, each an enchanting and nuanced portrait of English gentry life and manners.
