Mary Bennet’s Surprising New Friend
October 24, 2020 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm PDT
Just in time for the spooky season, share in a book discussion of Pride and Prometheus by John Kessel. RC Jeanne Talbot of the JASNA San Diego region will lead the discussion about this book, which blends aspects of Pride and Prejudice with Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Twelve years after the end of Austen’s tale, Mary Bennet meets Victor Frankenstein and finds him strangely compelling. Karen Joy Fowler, author of The Jane Austen Book Club, calls it “dark and gripping.” You have been warned!
