How was I never forced to read this book in high school? I can truly say that this book would have been wasted on my younger self. I can see why this book is a classic. The writing is so eloquent that upon research my finding is that Ms. Austen was only one and twenty...see what I did there.
grace a dieu! Never before have i been so happy to finish a book! what a slog! I suppose what i can say about this is that i read jane austen was 20 when she wrote this book. It says two things: mankind has not changed over the ages, and to have the insight to described those characteristics in such great detail is indeed a talent.
