Revamping the Classics
To celebrate Pride Month, we will take a look at what happens when we examine an old classic… and modern sensibilities at the same time. The result: a book like “A Woman’s Persuasion.”
We will spend some time reading passages from Jane Austen’s original, and then take a look at how I translated it to today.
