One entry on the list:
Emma by Jane AustenRead about another book on the list.
At the Westons' Christmas Eve dinner, Emma watches Mr Elton "drinking too much of Mr Weston's good wine". In the coach home she finds him "making violent love to her". She tells him he is not himself, but finds he has "drunk wine enough to elevate his spirits, not at all to confuse his intellects".
Emma is one of Judith Martin's five favorite novels and Monica Ali's ten favorite books.
