Austenland by Shannon Hale

Jane is a young New York woman who can never seem to find the right man - perhaps because of her secret obsession with Mr. Darcy, as played by Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Predjudice. When a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an English resort catering to Austen-obsessed women, however, Jane's fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become more real than she ever could have imagined. Is this total immersion in a fake Austenland enough to make Jane kick the Austen obsession for good, or could all her dreams actually culminate in a Mr. Darcy of her own?

SANDRA HALE is an Associate Professor and the Director of the University of Western Sydney's Interpreting and Translating Research Cluster. She's worked as an interpreter, educator, and researcher for a long time. She is the author of The Discourse of Court Interpretation and chaired the Critical Link 5 Conference in 2007.
