Audible's New Austen Collection

“Renowned as much for her wit and satirical social commentary as for her stories of love and romance, Jane Austen remains one of Britain’s best-loved authors. In this Audible Original collection featuring dramatisations of her six beloved novels, Austen's pin-sharp humour and tone is perfectly captured by an all-star list of narrators (Claire Foy, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Billie Piper, Florence Pugh and Emma Thompson), each accompanied by a full cast” including little old me!

This Audible Original Drama collection features Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion.

I play Mrs Smith in Persuasion

Anne Elliot, daughter of the snobbish Sir Walter Elliot, is woman of quiet charm and deep feelings. Eight years before our story begins, she is happily betrothed to a naval officer, Frederick Wentworth, but she breaks off the engagement when persuaded by her friend Lady Russell that such a match is unworthy. The breakup produces in Anne a deep and long-lasting regret.
