Jane Austen is one of the most widely read novelists in the English language, best known for novels like Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, and Persuasion. Her major novels, all published or written in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, remain in print and have generated countless adaptations. The standalone novels listed here also include Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and the unfinished works Sanditon and The Watsons.

Her Juvenilia, written as a teenager in the late 1780s and early 1790s, consists of short pieces collected across three volumes. Shorter works like Lady Susan, Love and Freindship (with the original spelling), and The Beautifull Cassandra show her comic voice in a more compressed form. Posthumous collections, compilations, and non-fiction volumes about her life and writing have continued to appear well into the 2020s, including anthologies like Women Who Wrote (2020) and The Greatest Tales of Regency Romance (2023). The breadth of her continued presence in new collections speaks to how central her work remains to English-language fiction.
