Does Jane Austen write humorous books or novels?

I am watching the slapstick Mafia. I don’t know her, I wanted to know.
Read something contemp for a change.

I thought the name sounded familiar. Pride and Prejudice? this is the only answer I will take. Thanks.
Jane Austen’s novels are subtly witty or comical, although they often touch on serious situations. They have some unforgettable characters, and all have happy endings. No one dies "onstage," and although a few hearts get broken, they always get mended. To me, the literary works most like hers are Shakespeare’s romantic comedies, especially his late ones–although no girl in a Jane Austen novel would disguise herself as a boy!

Yeah, she wrote humor.
She’s dead now, of course. Here’s a nice link you should look at that describes her work perfectly. http://www.litvillage.com/literary-quota tions.html
"Jane Austen is considered by many to be the foremost writer of the early 19th century. Her fiction focuses on relationships and the attempts by her heroes and heroines to find fortune and romance. Her ironic tone often comes through whether speaking as the narrator of a tale or through one of the characters."
Have fun, reader.
