Publisher Description

Early stories tell of postponed weddings, shallow friends, a reluctant bride, and a duke's tragic decline.

All of these poems where written during the last days of my adolescence. More than a record of those very difficult years of transition between childhood and adulthood these poems come together to showcase the fears and fixations of American society during the turn of the new millennium.

A collection of poems by Ken Chen, winner of the Yale Younger Poets prize in 2010.

The entertaining and funny pieces compiled in Juvenilia were penned by Jane Austen in her youth. With few in epistolary form, most of these pieces are short fictions and humorous while some are darker and contain more serious content. Apart from a tantalizing and colourful array of escapades, the work also presents some characters that later appear in novels of her mature years. Most famous pieces are History of England, Love and Freindship, The Beautifull Cassandra and Memoirs of Mr. Clifford.
