Lady Russell,   Written by Hazel Joy (10/6/2008 3:37 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Wentworth as Sir Walter - bear with me, penned by Susan Elizabeth
Are you new?

on reading for the first time in a very long time, does not appeal to me as much as on previous readings. She still seems to know better for Anne in where to move to save money. 'Lady Russell felt obliged to oppose her dear Anne's known wishes'. 'And with regard to Anne's dislike of Bath, she (Lady Russell)considered it as a prejudice and a mistake, arising, first,from the circumstances of her having been three years at school there after her mother's death and secondly, from her happening to be not in perfectly good spirits the only winter she had afterwards spent there with herself.'


Perhaps Anne just did not like Bath and that is why she was not in perfectly good spirits. At 27 she may well have known her own mind about where she did or did not want to live!
