  Sanditon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sanditon (1817) is an unfinished novel by the British novelist Jane Austen.
In Sanditon, Austen explored her interest in the oral construction of a society by means of a town – and a set of families – that is still in the process of being formed.
Sanditon builds on this theme, depicting the commercial development of a small watering place and the social confusion of its society (one character is a mulatto heiress from the West Indies).

 Everyman's Library: Sanditon and Other Stories
Sanditon might have been Austen’s greatest novel had she lived to finish it.
Its subject matter astonishes: here is Austen observing the birth pangs of the culture of commerce, as her country-bred heroine, a foolish baronet, a family of hypo­chondriacs, and a mysterious West Indian heiress collide against the background hum of real-estate development at a seaside resort.
What grips one about the early works at every turn is the wit, the fire, the voice, the comic distance Austen sets up between herself and her fictional characters.
