Knitting Book Club

Our selection of Jane Austen for July is Persuasion. This was her final novel and is praised as her greatest and most mature.
.

Persuasion follows the romance of Anne Elliot and naval officer Frederick Wentworth. They were happily engaged until Anne’s friend, Lady Russell, persuaded her that Frederick was “unworthy.” Now, eight years later,Frederick returns, a wealthy captain in the navy, while Anne’s family teeters on the edge of bankruptcy. They still love each other, but their past mistakes threaten to keep them apart.
.
Due to the vacation schedule of our leader, we have changed the date of the meeting to June 22nd at 7:00 p.m. We will return to our second Monday meeting time in July. This month bring your knitting and let's discuss the times of Jane Austen.

Also, right now BN has a sale on its classics, buy 2 get the 3rd free. It's a great time to get any other Austen's you may need for future discussions.
