Title: Jane Austen
Post by: Twisted.Illusions on April 12, 2016, 09:29:50 PM
Jane Austen will always be one of my favorite authors. It has been 241 years since her passing and her most beloved novels still remain popular, in one way or another..
She will always be one of the greatest writers in our history!

Well, TL, if you want a little more action in your Jane Austen, you can always read

I thought that it retained more of the original flavor of the story than I'd expected.  The author was clearly very familiar with the original.
