Join us at our al fresco book club this summer and explore graphic novels and classic novellas. Sign up at the Reading Room in advance and pick up your free book, then return to discuss with like-minded fans and hosts.
Hosted by Chasity Moreno, Librarian, New York Public Library, and Kelly Coyle-Crivelli, Penguin Random House:
"This high-spirited tale, told through an exchange of letters, is unique in Jane Austen’s small body of work. It is the story of Lady Susan, a brilliant, beautiful and morally reprehensible coquette who delights in making men fall in love with her, deceiving their wives into friendship and even tormenting her own daughter, cruelly bending her to her will. Austen clearly delighted in her wicked heroine—tracing Lady Susan’s maneuverings to remarry yet continue on with her lover, and to marry off her young daughter, with great wit, zest and unfailing panache."
Produced in partnership with Penguin Random House, Melville House Publishing, and DC Comics.
BookClub is free to join and does not require registration!
