Episode Synopsis

William Golding’s “Lord of the Flies” was not an instant hit. A lot of publishers turned it down and when first published, it did no sell well. Jane Austen is known for her six major novels and frequently examines women depending on marriage for social standing and economic security. However, the film industry has gained some economic security from film adaptations of Austen’s novels. Join librarian Amy Dalton and JCPL’s Director, Lisa Lintner as they explore the backstories of Austen and Golding!
