Did you know that the novel Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen was originally titled First Impressions? Austen later changed the title before the novel was published in 1813. The story follows the protagonist, Elizabeth Bennet, as she navigates the social hierarchy of 19th century England and falls in love with the brooding Mr. Darcy. Another classic novel, Moby-Dick by Herman Melville, was originally met with mixed reviews and poor sales when it was first published in 1851. However, it is now considered one of the greatest works of American literature. The novel follows the obsessed Captain Ahab as he seeks revenge on the white whale that took his leg. One more fun fact: To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee was published in 1960 and won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1961. The novel addresses racial injustice in the American South through the eyes of young Scout Finch. It remains a timeless classic and required reading in many schools around the world.
