Jane Austen 
Emma 

Jane Austen tells me that in 1815, when she was 39, she was Emma’s favorite novel. Emma is the author of novels like Love and Pride and Mansfield Park. Describing the search for ‚true love‘ by three young girls in a rural town, it takes the weaknesses of human creation on the one hand and the thin and hypocritical traditions of 19th century English society.
The great British poet Lord Tennyson described Jane Austen as ‚the greatest English writer after Shakespeare‘. The Jane Austen corpus would not have been missing the head of Sir Winston Churchill. Austen, whose work has long been among the World Classics, is now known as the ‚Mozart of English Literature‘.
