For both groups… it would be more convenient for me in the geographic middle of the US to meet at 8pm your time, particularly if the chosen day is or remains Sunday.
Sorry for the daft question but do these get recorded and were old ones recorded? Not sure how to navigate to them. Similar question about your recent seminar with Adam Philips, can you buy the recording?
I would appreciate it....the discussions don't have to be perfect or somehow canonical. Accessible after the fact is sufficient. For some of us the time zone is tricky.
oh no! are you def signed up for the austen emails? or do they go to the wrong email folder? If you have this problem again, go to the Jane Austen section here (https://www.commonreader.co.uk/s/jane-austen) and you will find the link post. Recording will be posted Tues/Weds
I thought I was. I received the link for the previous discussion on Pride & Prejudice. And I even dutifully reread the book and did NOT rewatch the movie. 😉 I will use the link you included and look forward to the recording. Thank you!
imho especially if you aren’t familiar with the period, the annotated Anchor editions are fantastic — I used this edition when teaching S&S to high school students and they seemed to find it helpful
I want to join the Shakespeare club. Do I need to do anything, or just read and watch for your zoom links? Thanks!
zoom links will be sent out the day before according to the schedule, so you'll get them as a paid subscriber without doing anything :)
Thanks. I ordered the recommended edition today.
Yep that’s it, as a paid subscriber you’ll get what you need on here
Wasn’t able to engage with the poll - it did not recognize me as a subscriber.
Shakespeare time suits me.
Saturdays or Sundays work for me for Austen.
Sundays work well (UK evening/EST afternoon). Looking forward to this and wishing you a lovely holiday season!
splendid and same to you :)
I love that you’re expanding to Jane Austen.

I might start recording next year, so far not

Saturday or late Sunday for us Calif hayseeds… no time works for all. I would love 6 sessions of Mansfield Park with its larch labyrinth.
Thanks for all your enthusiasm and prompts. I hope you, your family and extended readership have a perfectly splendid festive season.
I didn’t get link for Austen discussion today. Can you help?

Is there a recommendation on what type (collection/edition/etc.) of Austin books we should read?
No any will do

Saturdays would be very convenient for the Austin book club with people’s work schedules. For the fully employed common readers out there :-)
Not Sunday?
Sundays would work as well! Weekends in general. Thank you.
I haven’t confirmed dates yet (out your preferences in the comments or survey) but we will read the books in this order
Pride and Prejudice. Sense and Sensibility. Northanger Abbey. Mansfied Park. Emma. Persuasion.
