Persuasion, Chapter 17: A Widow Mrs. Smith

In Chapter 17 of Persuasion, we meet another new character, Anne's old school friend Mrs. Smith. She's poor and sick and also really great. This week we're joined at the end of the episode by Dr. Laura Mooneyham White to talk about how Austen's Christianity informs this book. --- Hot and Bothered is a Not Sorry Production Find us at our website | Follow us on Instagram Don't spend your daughter's dowry, but if you can spare $5/month, we'd love to have your support on Patreon!
