about

The Austen Project is a literary initiative that aims to bring the works of Jane Austen to a new generation of readers by commissioning contemporary authors to write modern adaptations of her novels.

From the witty social commentary of Pride and Prejudice to the heartfelt romance of Sense and Sensibility, our adaptations capture the essence of Austen’s timeless stories in a way that resonates with today’s readers.

Each adaptation is written by a talented and acclaimed author, carefully selected for their ability to capture Austen’s voice and style. The Austen Project is a celebration of Austen’s enduring legacy and her impact on literature and popular culture.

Whether you are a long-time Austen fan or a newcomer to her works, The Austen Project offers something for everyone. Experience the wit, charm, and romance of Jane Austen’s novels in a fresh and exciting way with The Austen Project.
