Each month the group meets to discuss literary works which have stood the "test of time" and are generally considered classics of their genre.  This month the group will be discussing Emma by Jane Austen.  The book will be available at the Library's Information Desks in early August.  First published in 1815 Emma is still widely read.  It looks at the lives and loves of "genteel" people living in Georgian-Regency England (early 1800s.)  The heroine is a spoiled, headstrong, young woman who is oblivious to the chaos she causes within her small community.  The book has been adapted several times for the big screen & television, a modernized version became the 1995 hit movie Clueless.
