„Mein Mut wächst mit jedem Versuch, mich einzuschüchtern.“ Jane Austen. Steventon, 1795. Die aufgeweckte Pfarrerstochter Jane möchte nur eines: schreiben. Mit tintenverschmierten Händen durchwacht sie die Nächte und begibt sich in die Welt ihrer Heldinnen. Doch ihre Schwester Cass ist verlobt, und Jane schwant, dass ihre Mutter ganz ähnliche Pläne für ihre Zukunft schmiedet. Nur sind Jane die jungen Kerle aus dem Ort alle einerlei, bestenfalls geben sie akzeptable Tanzpartner auf den von ihr heiß geliebten Bällen ab – bis der belesene Wirbelwind Tom Lefroy aufkreuzt. Janes Herz aber muss immer wieder Enttäuschungen ertragen. Umso unermüdlicher kämpft sie für ihren größten Traum: einen Roman zu veröffentlichen. Pfarrerstochter, Schriftstellerin, Ausnahmetalent – Der Roman über das Leben von Jane Austen
