Jane Austen
Have you ever heard of Jane Austen ? I bet you did. She was an English novelist who wrote romantic fiction books but still managed to write about social problems of her century. She was born in 1775 in Hampshire, England. She was raised in a men's world and tried to write books that change the world. Mostly she wrote about strong women, which didn't rely on men or marriage. With her words she described society and people of her time perfectly. Jane Austen had never been married, although there were several men in her life. My favourite book of her is "Pride & Prejudice", because this book is so lovely written in every single word.
"The person, whether it be a gentleman or a lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid!" Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey.
( Northanger Abbey was the first book completed for publication by Jane Austen).
