Lady Susan
by Jane Austen

Lady Susan is a short epistolary novel written by young Jane Austen and published posthumously. (US Edition)  ( £0.77 UK Edition) 

It has its fans among Amazon reader reviewers: “Short, but sweet. This book is so witty it cracks me up every time.”  

Nice!  Some more Jane Austen!  Let’s explore . . . 

But I was determined to be discreet, to bear in mind my being only four months a widow, and to be as quiet as possible: and I have been so, my dear creature; I have admitted no one's attentions but Mainwaring's. I have avoided all general flirtation whatever; I have distinguished no creature besides, of all the numbers resorting hither, except Sir James Martin, on whom I bestowed a little notice, in order to detach him from Miss Mainwaring; but, if the world could know my motive THERE they would honour me. I have been called an unkind mother, but it was the sacred impulse of maternal affection, it was the advantage of my daughter that led me on; and if that daughter were not the greatest simpleton on earth, I might have been rewarded for my exertions as I ought.

“Early” Jane Austen sounds better than "later" most everyone else . . .
