Love and Freindship [sic] is a melodramatic epistolary novelette written by Jane Austen when she was fourteen years old. Although the novels Austen became known for were not published until she was in her thirties, she was an active writer from the age of twelve, frequently composing epistolary works such as Love and Freindship. Austen eventually compiled 29 of her early writings in three notebooks that became known as the Juvenilia and that she called “Volume the First”, “Volume the Second”, and “Volume the Third”, including Love and Freindship in “Volume the Second”. Love and Freindship is set contemporaneously to Austen’s writing and consists of a series of fifteen letters, most of which are written from the perspective of the protagonist, Laura, who recounts her extraordinary personal history to her friend Isabel’s daughter. The novel satirizes sentimental novels, which were a popular genre at the time. Austen’s early works are frequently published with the original spelling errors unaltered, a practice that is particularly conspicuous in the case of Love and Freindship because of the spelling error in the title. Austen dedicated this novelette to her cousin Eliza de Feuillide, who is believed by literary critics to have inspired multiple characters in Austen’s writings, including the titular character in the novel Lady Susan. In 2016, Lady Susan was adapted into a film that borrowed the title Love &amp; Friendship, albeit with the spelling corrected. - Summary by David Purdy Cast List: Laura: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/17841" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Irene Rubio</a> Sophia: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/11084" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Devorah Allen</a> Edward Lindsay: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8425" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Larry Wilson</a> Isabel: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/17928" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">rosefiasco</a> Augusta: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/13140" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jenn Broda</a> Gustavus: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10789" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tomas Peter</a> Polydore: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10542" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">David Purdy</a> Claudia: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/15644" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Michelle Purdy</a> Sir Edward: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/13577" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Adrian Stephens</a> Augustus: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/17752" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">redrun</a> Philippa: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/18293" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Norah Nelson</a> Lord St. Clair: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/4705" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Algy Pug</a> Janetta: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/17923" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">deaspoke</a> MacDonald: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6754" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ToddHW</a> Servant: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8011" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Greg Giordano</a> Postilion: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/11395" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rich Brown</a> Innkeeper: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/15042" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">John Payton</a> Narrator: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/16205" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">James R.
