Celebrating the 250th Anniversary of Jane Austen
This December marks the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth—celebrate with us by stepping into the world of Regency England! Each month, we’ll read and enjoy one of her six novels in the order they were published. Our meetings will feature guided discussions, designed to enrich your reading experience with context, insights, and lively conversation.
For our April meeting we will read Persuasion, a poignant tale of second chances, maturity, and enduring love, often considered Austen’s most profound work.
