Another previous thread, and Anne's inscrutability Written by Tom P2 (10/26/2011 6:45 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Time to stir the pot on the ambivalence of Mrs Smith..., penned by jeffrey

We're into the last batch of chapters, so I assume that the danger of linking to spoilers has passed.

I stand by what I said in the March 2011 thread, linked below.

In particular, I think that Mrs Smith doesn't notice how much of an intellectual and moral heavyweight Anne has grown up to be. She only notices that she's likely to inspire better treatment than the first Mrs Elliot received.

I have no patience with patient Mrs Smith! Written by OlgaI (March 18, 2011)
