And here are the questions:
Q1. Persuasion, like many Austen books, has been successfully adapted to screen many times. Name your beloved onscreen adaptation of a book published before 1900.
Q2. In Persuasion, Anne and Capt. Wentworth really go through the wringer. What's your favorite angsty romance that isn't them?
Q3. Capt. Wentworth is a naval captain. Tell us about a book featuring a lead character who is in a branch of the military.
Q4. British naval captains were famous adventurers. What's your favorite adventure story?
Q5. Anne is quite a dutiful sister. What's your favorite literary sibling relationship?
Q6. By the standards of the time, Anne was a spinster. What is a book where the female lead is an older woman?
Q7. Persuasion is one of the most critiqued/referenced books in English literature. Name a book whose plot or characters or central ideas reference another book.
Q8. Capt. Wentworth made his fortune at sea. Tell us about a book with a self-made lead character.
Q9. Persuasion has a lot to say about traditional gender roles. What's a book that plays with traditional gender roles?
Q10. (OPTIONAL) Finally, tell us a bit of trivia, a fun aside, a personal anecdote related to either Persuasion or any other work by Jane Austen.
