After a scandal and loss of fortune, Blanche seeks refuge with her sister Stella. However, Stella's husband, Stanley, and Blanche take an immediate dislike to each other. Disturbingly subtle at times and painfully open at others, this play teeter totters on a balance that crumbles by the finale. What happens to a woman disgraced when she has no one left?

My absolute favorite Austen novel. Anne Elliot is mature, relatable, kind, intelligent, and humble. And of all the Austen couples, she and Wentworth are the most well balanced. They both show radical character development, even more so than the beloved Lizzy and Darcy. A great read for anyone looking for a romance with depth, wits, and heart.

This was not my favorite CS Lewis work but I still enjoyed it. The work was very didactic and metaphorical, which may be a turn off for some.
Like his other writings, The Great Divorce illustrated his ability to convey deep and profound truths in simple language. But the ending was a let down for me, and I found his depictions of women flat and stereotypical.
