|  | Little Book of the Green Man by Mike Harding
Who is the green man who stares down enigmatically for the corbels and capitals of churches across Europe? He has been linked to Robin Hood, Pan, the Oak King and the Holly King. For such a blatantly Pagan image to have persisted in Christian churches all over Europe surely implies a tremendous power and significance. AUTHOR: Mike Harding

 | Emma by Adela Pinch, C. E. Brock, Carroll Moulton, H. M. Daleski, James Kinsley
First published in 1816, EMMA is about an unconventional heroine who possesses beauty, power, confidence, and wealth. She is also opinionated and judgmental, scheming and cunning. She attempts to match an orphaned young woman, Harriet Smith, with someone of a higher-born class, instead of the farmer Harriet prefers. The novel follows the two women as they weave in and out of love relationships that mirror the social climb. Denied any other way to advance, the women in Austen's novels must marry to get ahead.
