Join us for this book club chat about Austen's first novel Sense and Sensibility. Former BYU professor and author, John Bennion, will discuss the merits of the book and Austen's growth as a novelist as she improved upon her craft in subsequent books. The film adaptation of the book as written by Emma Thompson helped to give the novel new life. We compare the book and film, and come to the rare conclusion that the movie did great service to the book in rounding out the characters. But Austen will forever remain the queen of dialogue and masterful observer of people.
