Pod and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice Vol. II Chapters 17-19


Listen Later

Chapter 17: Lizzy tells Jane everything about Darcy's proposal (except the truth about why Bingley left her hanging) and Wickham's true character. Highlights include "Wicked Wickham," "I happen to like nice men," the fluidity of sexuality in Jane Austen, bitch crackers, team defend Darcy vs. defame Wickham, and Lizzo for the Austen era.

Chapter 18: Lydia gets an invitation to join the Forsters on their trip to Brighton with the regiment. Highlights include the splitting up of Kydia, Brighton spring break, and Wickham sending dick pics on Snapchat.

Chapter 19: A deep-dive into the Bennet parents. Lizzy's plans for the summer change. Highlights include the younger, hotter versions of Mr. and Mrs. B, who's playing Daddy Bennet in Molly's mind NOW, an unfortunate critique of Daddy B, Derbyshire, and Versailles.

Study Questions: Topics discussed include how Volume the Second changed the game, how Jane Janes, Lizzy going too far in her critique of Daddy B, predictions for Brighton, the de-Lydia-ing of Kitty, and predictions for Pemberley and Volume the Third.

Funniest Quote: "Oh, well. It is just as he chooses. Nobody wants him to come. Though, I shall always say that he used my daughter extremely ill, and if I was her, I would not have put up with it. Well, my comfort is, I am sure Jane will die of a broken heart, and then he will be sorry for what he has done."

Questions Moving Forward: Is Darcy going to be at Pemberley?
