SUMMARY:Edgar: Book Club: "Sense & Sensibility" by Jane Austen
DESCRIPTION:Join library staff and other book lovers for engaging book discussions each month! This September\, we will discuss “Sense & Sensibility” by Jane Austen. \nMarianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve\, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor’s warning that her impulsive behavior leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile Elinor\, always sensitive to social convention\, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment\, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love—and its threatened loss—the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love. \nNo registration is required\, and all are welcome! Stop by the library to check out a copy of the book. For more information\, please contact us at 715-352-3155.
