Sanditon by Jane Austen

"Charlotte Heywood is honored to visit Mr. and Mrs. Parker at their Sanditon estate, not the least because, as they assure her, it will soon turn into the epicenter of style for society summers. She witnesses her socially astute hosts' schemes to draw a decent throng after finding the town to be all but abandoned. Austen creates a classic cast of characters with varied degrees of senseless lunacy. Sanditon, Austen's final fictional work, which she wrote the year before she passed away and when she was very ill, offers a look into her final creative prowess and obsessions. Austen was one of the finest writers in English literature."
