Jane Austen may be romance fictions first superstar, though during her lifetime, she never aspired to that goal. Austen's specialty was domestic fiction, and she remains eternally popular due to her ability to both chronicle and satirize the daily lives of her peers. While the genre that developed around the era she wrote about, the Regency, has become largely focused on the peerage and its foibles, Austen largely focused on ordinary, albeit landed, people.
