2. Victor Hugo. The descriptiveness, the minuteness, the beauty of setting a scenario.

Persuasion

Jane Austen
𝐌. 𝐉. 𝐋π₯𝐨𝐲𝐝𝐌. 𝐉. 𝐋π₯𝐨𝐲𝐝

Last on Persuasion: I have seen a valid argument about how a modernised adaptation will attract a younger audience to read Jane Austen. But if they had no previous contact, they'll do it with wrong expectations, probably be sorely disappointed, and maybe never read her again.

@theresalkrupp I'd ask Victor Hugo if 'Les Miserables' truly has a plot hole in the timeline πŸ˜‚

My style being already descriptive, I'm afraid to re-read 'The Two Towers' and have 40 pages in my next book fully dedicated to the hue of Bath stone. I still love you, Tolkien.

@jingjingjax Banished and Dawn of Man, Life is Feudal and Medieval Dynasty (grouping by gameplay I guess). Crusader Kings II was my biggest craze - not exactly the same, but still within the strategy and management realms.
