While Austens novels bring to life complex characters living in intimate surroundings, <em>England in the Age of Austen</em> provides a fuller account of what the village, the church, and the family home would really have been like. In addition to seeing how Austens own reading helped her craft complex characters like Emma, Black also explores how recurring figures in the novels, such as George III or Fanny Burney, provide a focus for a historical discussion of the fiction in which they appear.
