The most honest author criticism I read today

thesuccessmanual on 20/06/12 city: New-York tags: writing  Comment: 0 Save: 0

Here's what Mark Twain said about Jane Austen, the godmother of women chick-lit writers:

  • I haven't any right to criticize books, and I don't do it except when I hate them. I often want to criticize Jane Austen, but her books madden me so that I can't conceal my frenzy from the reader; and therefore I have to stop every time I begin. Every time I read Pride and Prejudice I want to dig her up and beat her over the skull with her own shin-bone.
