When she was writting this novel she was at the age of 20.Austen began writing the novel after staying at Goodnestone Park in Kent with her brother Edward and his wife. This novel was a begging draft/edition of what we know as Pride and Prejudice. It is belived that Austen was writting First Impressions as a social commentary on the complex social customs of her time, as well as the pressure of marriage at her times. The title First Impressions eludes to her first version of Pride and Prejudice being more heavily focused on Lizzy Bennet, as she was the charecter who struggled with letting her first impression of people take ahold of her emotions.
