Morr_Books @BarkingMadRead Can you add me to these posts? Couldn't do last month's read due to a hectic travel schedule, but I'm all in for Passage to India! 😀 1y

AnnR Dr. Aziz seems energetic and thoughtful. I sympathize with his frustrations about not having his time valued. Meaning even if Aziz was running late, Major Callendar could have left a message for him. The chance encounter with and impetuous comments to Mrs. Moore probably will backfire at some point.

Chapter 2: Jane acts the part of Emma to try and help Anne‘s situation, and snags her a place on their trip to the beach…. But when Anne comes back she starts to feel worse, and then the play she wrote for the children somehow gets her fired. #theyblamedherheadaches #mansfieldparkfeels #somanyparallels #pooranne #pemberlittens #chapteraday

suvata Chapter 2: “Anne‘s voice as a writer has been forever stifled. It appears that her plays were never staged outside the schoolroom, and her scripts, diaries, and letters have never been discovered.” It‘s sad to think how many times this has happened in history. 2y
