Another fine offering in the vein of Excellent Women, Jane and Prudence is the story of two friends with very different lives. They met when Jane was Prudence’s tutor in college; Jane now wants to find a husband for Prudence. Both women are smart, but they have vastly different experiences with the opposite sex. Jane is married to a clergyman and bored senseless; Prudence is single and has carried on a series of love affairs. When Jane tries her hand at matchmaking, the village’s handsome widower becomes her target. Village life then becomes the primary focus of the novel (along with dating). Delightful.
