Last summer saw the bi-centenary of Jane Austen’s death; there were events and celebrations across England. Visiting friends in Winchester in the summer, we went to the cathedral where she is buried. Amongst the art-works created in her honour, was an open book for messages, right next to her stone on the floor. People from all around the world had written such moving tributes, almost as if they were talking to her. Universally popular.
Book-in-Bar in Aix are devoting their book club on Thursday 25th to Jane. They write: Special bookclub about Jane Austen!
Everything you ever wanted to know about one of England’s most celebrated writers. We will summarise 6 1/2 books in 60 minutes plus throw into the mix a cool 20 questions (with their answers!) about her and her life.
Book-in-Bar is in rue Joseph Cabassol, Aix.
