What if...
Picture
Elizabeth had married Mr. Wickham?
Picture
Fanny had married Henry?
Picture
Emma had married Frank?

Many of Jane Austen's characters were contemplating marriage with someone other than the one they ended up with.  There were definitely a number of narrow misses!
What if those marriages had taken place? 

Join us as we explore what might have happened.  Think about your favourite Austen narrow escapes and come prepared to share your thoughts as we discuss "what if"!
