What Sanditon is About
The TV series is a bold continuation of Jane Austen’s final, unfinished novel. Season 1 follows newcomer Charlotte Heywood’s arrival in the seaside resort town, and her budding friendships and romantic possibilities. Charlotte’s epic journey continues in Seasons 2 and 3, which explore the classic predicament of a young, independent woman making her way in the world.
“Sanditon is designed to be a balmy retreat where everything is easy on the eyes, and where abandoning your cares is the point,” says Salon.
