520    How successfully does the world of Jane Austen translate 
       into Spanish? One intrepid author finds out in 
       thisliterary exploration/travel memoir. On sabbatical, 
       Austen devotee Smith embarked on a project to discuss 
       Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility and Emma with 
       reading groups in Latin America. Displaying the good cheer
       and wry humor befitting an Austenite (as opposed to, say, 
       an Emily Bronte or George Eliot enthusiast), she plunged 
       into Spanish immersion classes in Guatemala, then set off 
       for a romantic fling and the first of several reading 
       adventures in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Smith was happy to 
       discover that Austen's genteel 19th-century English 
       setting and formal narrative style proved to be relatable 
       to her eager readers: Nearly all of them recognized their 
       own lives in the plots and affirmed that issues of gender,
       class and familial obligation transcend era and locale.
