![]() ![]() In fact Jane Austen herself said that in writing Emma: I know my friends who love Austen tend to like her least of all the Austen heroines as they think she is too shallow or silly. Many people don’t like this book because they don’t like Emma. BUT, 2015 marks another anniversary, this Christmas marks the 200th Birthday of Emma.Įmma is a very unique character unlike any of the other Austen heroines. Yes 2015 marks the 30th anniversary of 1985, of which I have written a post celebrating The Breakfast Club, will be posting one on Back to the Future, and one honoring the rest of the awesome stuff that came out that year. ![]() I should do Mansfield Park next, but decided to wait as this year is a special year. Then I moved on to Sense and Sensibility as it was the first book published. I started with Pride and Prejudice as it turned 200 in 2013. I decided to do this mainly because Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion are really forgotten in the Austen fan world. So as I mentioned in an earlier post, I decided instead of reading through each Jane Austen novel one by one, I will instead read four chapters of one and then move on to another, then another, etc that way each book would get posted on. ![]()
