## Description

BBC Audio presents Lady Susan , Jane Austen's early novel not published until after her death. Widowed Lady Susan is an outrageous flirt and a dreadful mother, constantly controlling and embarrassing the people around her. When Lady Susan remarries, she attempts to push her daughter into a bleak marriage with a man she despises. Deceit slowly spreads through a series of letters exchanged between Lady Susan, her daughter, friends, family and arch enemies. Will the truth be unravelled in time? Starring Imelda Staunton, Alicia Johnson and Maggie Steed. © 2020 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (p) 2020 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
