Cracknell’s interview in the LA Times is telling: [Austen’s] time wasn’t about racial issues.

  • think that I write about young adults. I don’t think this genre is constrained to the age range of its main characters; there are YA readers of all ages. Adolescence is a phase in modern life that continues to resonate throughout one’s lifetime.
