Mr Darcy's Cottage of Earthly Delights: Shades of Pride and Prejudice
Beth Massey lives in Chicago overlooking Lake Michigan with her husband of forty plus years.   They have been activists in the struggle against war, racism, sexism and anti-lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender bigotry for even longer than their marriage.   Now that she and Bill are retired, Ms Massey spends her early mornings writing and the rest of her day in the company of her well-informed best friend and partner.  The two are free to engage in a great deal of conversation and have even been known to spend an afternoon discussing their ideas concerning Jonathon Swift, pig farming and the Nuremberg trials.  Jane Austen and Mary Ann Shaffer would certainly approve.
