Sense and Sensibility





I found this description of our upcoming book. I really like it.

"It is the story of two sisters, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, who represent sense and sensibility, respectively. When both appear to be deserted by the young men they had intended to marry, the stage is set for a delicious comedy of manners that not only showcases Austen's perception, humour and incomparible prose but offers a splendid glimpse of upper and middle class English society of the early 19th century."


This is our 4th Jane Austen book and is the beginning of our 4th year. Time flies. One of these days we should compile a list of all the books we (book club) have read together.


See you Tuesday night at Coffee Lodge Finch, 7 pm.

"Tuesdays with Morrie" at the Imperial

*
Here are the pictures from this afternoon. What a great bonus to have met the 'whole' cast at Ups and Downs. Getting additional insight into the characters from the people who played them was certainly the icing on the cake.
I'm going to try and sort this blog out so that you can all post here, not just me....Stay tuned.
