    But it is not just love that is portrayed in your books. Austen made harsh criticisms of the society in which she lived, these criticisms can be brought to the present day with ease, because just like the society in which Austen lived, we can observe in our generation many people who live a life of appearances clinging to material things and being very ambitious for money and social ascension.

    In addition, his books have a strong look at the inequality suffered by women. Although we have now overcome many issues related to women's rights, we know that we have not yet reached a situation in which women are seen equally. In Austen's books, women must face many challenges that are still faced today, in addition to having to prove that they are intelligent, educated, strong and sufficient. Thus, it is very common for women today to identify with women and the situations described in the books by Jane Austen.
