I remember that Charles Dickens lived in the 1800s and wrote about life in London. I remember he wrote 35 novels and the 200-year anniversary of his birth was in February 2012.
Jane Austen (1775-1817) wrote romantic fiction. Her novels usually involved the British upper classes. The main theme of her stories was the fact that women in these times depended on marriage for social status and financial security. Some of her most famous novels are: Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park(1814) andEmma (1816).
