With special guest Longinus, the boys drink and review Dad Strength IPA, then discuss a short novel by Jane Auten as part of their "shortcut to the classics" series.
After a brief review of Austen's biography, they dive into the first book Austen wrote, but one of the last to be published.
Lady Susan is an epistolary novel, meaning that it's composed of a bunch of personal letters, which means you're always getting the story from the perspective of the letter writer.
Susan is the most accomplished flirt and manipulator in England. She's also very pretty and looks more 25 than 35. She's a hurricane who leaves destruction in her wake.
The novel is a fun romp through 18th century society and is decently portrayed in the movie "Love and Friendship" on Amazon.
