Ahh, won’t you escape with me to the countryside in 19th Century England, to the world of the Bennett sisters, Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley, where judgements on character have been made too hastily and things aren’t always what they seem. 

In this 8 week semester book club we will enjoy each other’s company and Jane Austen’s timeless and witty classic, “Pride and Prejudice”! Every class will be highly interactive yet relaxed. There will be delightful and deep discussions of the novel’s themes, plot, setting, and characters. We will do a Reader’s Theatre activity each meeting as well, with easy-to-read scripts prepared by Mrs. B and no need for fancy sets or memorizing lines. It will be excellent fun(giggling is not required but encouraged, hee hee)!

***Note:  Assigned reading of the novel's actual chapters will be done primarily as homework in between our meetings.  If this proves to be too challenging, learners are encouraged to listen to a free audio version of the novel for better understanding and enjoyment.  Perhaps a combination of reading and listening would work for learners if they so choose!

Outline of Course:
Week One: Chapters 1-8
Week Two: Chapters 9-15
