“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.” ― Caroline Bingley, Pride & Prejudice

UPCOMING EVENTS

Celebrating Last Impressions: Jane Austen’s Endings!

Saturday, September 27 2:00PM - 4:00PM
$40 per person

Aldredge House Mus5500 Swiss Ave., Dallas, TX
Carpooling is recommended!
See parking map below.

We are very excited that one of our own, Dr. Theresa Kenney, has written this insightful look at the endings in Jane Austen’s novels. Jane’s conclusions have often perplexed her readers, who at times perceive her novels’ endings as hasty or overly simplistic. However, a closer examination reveals that her final chapters are meticulously crafted, serving as critical touchstones that redefine the entire narrative. Last Impressions offers an in-depth analysis of the literary strategies Austen employs to conclude her novels, and Dr. Kenney will share more about this at this meeting.

Attendees who bring a copy of Dr. Kenney’s book will get it signed by the author!
