Becoming Jane Austen

Becoming Jane Austen in the late 18th Century required considerable imagination and resilience. And while she remains the preeminent female author of her time, she also read other women writers. In the book Jane Austen’s Bookshelf, by Rebecca Romney, the reader comes to know some of the voices that echoed in Austen’s mind. Please join us in a discussion of Jane Austen’s life and some of her lively contemporaries.

Led by Diane Proctor, a former administrator and teacher at Milton Academy, The Hotchkiss School, and Middlesex School. In partnership with John C. Hart Memorial Library.
