August 21, 2022 – Virtual Book Club: Sense and Sensibility

Cover of Sense and Sensibility

Our August 21 meeting is our Virtual Book Club. This quarter we are reading an Austen novel, Sense and Sensibility. The meeting will be facilitated by member Mary Jane Curry. Sense and Sensibility ties in with our national group’s upcoming Annual General Meeting in Victoria, BC (or in the comfort of your own home with a virtual ticket). We look forward to a stimulating and lively discussion of this beloved Austen novel!

To prepare for the meeting, please check out the questions and insights Mary Jane has provided for us, found at the bottom of this page. We also recommend that you read Joan Klingel Ray’s article on Sense and Sensibility‘s men. Whether this is your first time reading this Austen novel or your hundredth, we look forward to the insights we will gain in this reading together!

JASNA-NC April MeetingTouring Jane Austen CountryJoin JASNA-North Carolina member Pamela Hale and her husband, Dutch Tubman, for “Two Anniversaries in England: From Train to Jane.” They’ll share how they got around England to visit Jane Austen-related sites as well as how Jane and the Austen family might have traveled. Their Jane itinerary included Steventon, Basingstoke, Bath, Alton, Chawton, Winchester, Reading, Southampton, Oxford, London, and Canterbury. They rode more than 30 trains, returned by the Queen Mary II, and, after docking in Brooklyn, stayed in Manhattan to visit the exhibition A Lively Mind at the Morgan Library. Look forward to photos of homes, churches, entertainments (such as the Merlin Swing and the Catch-Me-Who-Can), maps, vehicles, and quotes from Jane’s writings and letters!The DetailsWhat: Touring Jane Austen Country with JASNA-NC member Pamela Hale and Dutch TubmanWhen: April 12, 2026 from 2:00-3:30 p.m.Where: In the comfort of your home via Zoom.RSVP: ...
