Inspired by the true events of the little known romance of the young Jane Austen when she falls in love with the attractive young Irishman Tom Lefroy, Becoming Jane presents a fresh and surprising view of the young Jane before she became a writer. It is clear that this was the most romantic experience in Jane’s life and a major influence on her work.
