The Really Popular Book Club: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Tue 26 September 2023

Zoom Meetings

The Really Popular Book Club is Cambridge University Libraries' book group. Everyone is welcome to come and discuss a really popular book with the group, library staff, and an expert on the novel. Hosted on Zoom, the book club is completely free and open to everyone, people attend from all over the world.

The Really Popular Book Club celebrates the huge range of books at Cambridge University Library. We have more than 8 million books and as a legal deposit library we keep a copy of every book published in the UK, and have done since 1710.

Jane Austen’s greatest and best-loved novel follows the five Bennet sisters as they try to overcome the titular sins of pride and prejudice in order to fall in love and marry. With our special guest Dr Sarah Houghton-Walker (University of Cambridge), we’ll look at how the book tells us what it means really to know and to love those whose lives surround our own.
