      Synopsis

      Pride and Prejudice told from a delightfully different point of view. "The Holy Grail of P&P sequels." (Austenblog)

      Originally published in the U.K., Mary Street's ingenious retelling of Jane Austen's classic story now makes its U.S. debut-to the delight of the fans of Austen's comic masterpiece of divine romance. In Fitzwilliam Darcy, Austen created the ultimate romantic hero. Yet Pride and Prejudice reveals little of Darcy's innermost thoughts. Here, Street unveils the true motives and mysteries of Elizabeth Bennet's enigmatic suitor. Through Darcy's eyes we discover the reality of his relationships with his sister Georgiana, his cousin Colonel Fitzwilliam, the dastardly Wickham, his friend Bingley, and his formidable aunt, Lady Catherine. And of course, all his memorable encounters with Elizabeth, from that first view of her fine eyes to his disastrous proposal, and then to a pride and arrogance tempered by an unquenchable love.

      Biography

      Mary Street was born in Heanor, Derbyshire. Her interest in writing began while she was in the hospital recovering from an automobile accident. She is the author of several romance and suspense novels.

      October 27, 2008: Fitzwilliam Darcy's shyness prevents him from easily conversing with acquaintances. Talking with strangers never became an issue until he met a young lady at a country assembly.

      Elizabeth Bennet was not the average society woman. She wasn't impressed by his wealth and didn't admire him.

      The more they were thrown into the same company, the more he began to notice her and desire her good opinion.

      Mary Street takes the romantic tale of Jane Austen's PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and creates a novel from Fitzwilliam Darcy's perspective, giving great insight into the mind of one the most delightful characters in literature.

      If you're a Jane Austen fan, be sure to pick up this book.

      April 19, 2008: The book tells the story of P&P from Darcy's side. It was enjoyable read. But I LOVED the series by Pamela Aidan, which basically takes the same approach, but delves deeper into Darcy's character.
