Lady SusanBy CpheThoroughly enjoyed this novella length story written in an epistolary style although Im not overly fond of this type of delivery. it does work in this instance. Its only lately that Ive looked at the lesser known works of Jane Austen.Lady Susan. well she is a bit of a "cougar". A middle aged. ("pretty") woman who is devious. delusional. manipulative. vindictive. self serving and arrogant. She has no maternal feelings at all and she enjoys playing the game.......I found her quite delightful. she quite puts Lizzie Eustace from Trollopes The Eustace Diamonds in the pale with her machinations.Was surprised to find that this is an earlier work and that its not more well known. More than worth a look at.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. NPD or BPDBy A.B. GayleTo some. Lady Susans actions and self delusion may seem over the top. There is nothing redeemable about her. The trouble is that people like her do exist. Read contributions on forums for Narcissistic and Borderline Personality Disorders!The trouble is that unless you are one of the unfortunate individuals in their firing line. these people ensure the rest of the world thinks they are marvellous.Hats off to Jane Austen for identifying this type of behaviour at such a young age. And of understanding the personalities of the people surrounding them.Her decision to write her story as a series of letters was both brilliant and doomed to failure.The careful choosing of words and saying without saying worked really well at the start. but by midway through. the need for scenes with dialogue overrode a letters capabilities.Had she returned to this project later in life. she may have worked a way around it. interspersing action with letters. But perhaps that would have negated what she was trying to do. Write the whole thing in the form of letters.She also possibly understood by then that characters like Lady Susan do exist. but they rarely become true heroes of a story because they never or rarely improve because they refuse to ever admit they are in the wrong.Modern psychology says the only way to deal with someone with NPD is to avoid them.From a distance. they (and Lady Susan) can be regarded with pity. It takes a special person to love them.So. while this story was never completed by the author. it remains as a true testament of her insight into people and their strengths and weaknesses.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. She will live on in infamy as one of the most reviled Austen character creationsBy RenRead it just because the work can be attributed to Austen. my favorite author. I cannot say it is my favorite Austen work but the characters are all unique with the flawed personalities that make them feel more real. The flawed and very human protagonists are part of why I enjoy Austen novels so much. I mean. who really likes the perfect but insipid heroine and flawless hero? Well some people might but I do not. Part of the reason I enjoy Austen so much is because of the depth of her characters and how they change. Lady Susan is definitely a flawed individual. It was an interesting combination of amusement and hate I found myself feeling while reading this work. Her daughter. Frederica. is one of the many victims of her mother and while you might feel sorry for her she is almost a side note in the story. Interestingly enough there were no changes to Lady Susans perfidious character. She will live on in infamy as one of the most reviled Austen character creations and people will continue to read the work for the sheer amusement at her audacity and thankfulness at their own good fortune to not be in possession of such a mother.
