- Fareed Zakaria: “This week's "Book of the Week" might seem like a bit of a departure for me. It's titled "A Jane Austen Education: How Six Novels Taught Me about Love, Friendship and the Things that Really Matter," by William Deresiewicz. No, you don't have to have read Jane Austen. This is an absolutely fascinating, beautifully written book. It tells us what we can learn about real life from great literature.”
