October Book: Lady Susan by Jane Austen

Mark your calendars for our October discussion of *Lady Susan* by Jane Austen!

ABOUT THE BOOK

Beautiful, charming, and utterly without scruple, Lady Susan Vernon is a recently widowed aristocrat with a gift for manipulation—and an appetite for securing the most advantageous future possible. This heroine is not a young woman learning to navigate society, but a brilliant, predatory social strategist who understands exactly how power, reputation, money, and desire operate.
