Austen in Boston

Do you like to discuss Jane Austen and her works endlessly?
Do you enjoy watching the TV and film adaptations of her works?
Do you dream about Darcy and Knightley? (Or Lizzy and Marianne?)
Or are you new to Austen and loving her?

If your answer is yes to any of these questions, this group is for you!

We meet mostly on the South Shore to get together for our Austen fix.  We also mix it up with other period authors and host picnics, movie viewings, afternoon teas, tours of historic houses, and holiday parties.

We hope that you will join us!

Find us on Facebook here.   Also on Twitter @AusteninBoston.
