A Frankness of Character

A Pride and Prejudice Variation

De: Pemberley Darcy, A Lady

Narrado por: Harry Frost

An apology more offensive than an infamous insult. A decidedly epic set down. A gentleman left properly humbled. An impertinent young lady provoked to civil disdain.

As humiliating as an ill-bred set down was from an impertinent country miss, the veracity of Elizabeth Bennet’s arguments and the humiliation at his own lack of understanding started to sink in.

After years of entrenched isolation, others would take notice if he appeared more civil. How was he to take his place in society without raising expectations?

He reaches out to the one person he can trust, Colonel Fitzwilliam, who joins the party at Netherfield.

The colonel’s plan for Mr. Darcy’s redemption seems on course until his aunt’s obsequious parson proposes marriage to Miss Bingley, setting off a flurry of unintended consequences that even he struggles to contain.

Longbourn is in an uproar. Lady Catherine de Bourgh is on a rampage. Darcy and Elizabeth are estranged.

Dear Listener, this Pride and Prejudice Variation is of the sweet, clean, and slightly witty sort. Although the book opens with an argument and a lot of accusations are thrown around, this story promises nothing more vulgar than Mrs. Bennet’s exclamations and a few ill-informed insinuations. Adult topics are discussed. There will be a happy ending for all.

The best adaptation!

Love that there is less angst, and that no one gets stuck with Wickham. A most satisfying story beginning to end.

A new ending but a great one!

I really how this started at Elizabeth and Darcy’s meeting and went on from there. It was different but so good. 8 really enjoyed it!

Good Story and Good Narrator

Good variation, good narration. Best part was the beginning between Darcy and Elizabeth. Truly great dialogue. Also responses by Mr Bennett. Rest of story was good, but not as engrossing. I have listened to Harry Frost in other variations and enjoyed those readings, but this one wasn’t up to par. Not sing-song, not quite that, but nearly so, when not reading dialogue.

Most enjoyable

I recall reading this a while back. As soon as I saw Harry Frost was narrating, I purchased the Audible immediately. A delightful story with the talented "Harry style" made it all the more fun to listen to. You can always distinguish between the characters dialogue. His Darcy is by far the best. Colonel Fitzwilliam is a more involved character here. Just love the Colonel. A definite HEA with some humor and smiles in the mix.

Loved it.

Reread. I just love listening to Harry Frost being Lady Catherine de Bourgh :) and all the other characters as well. Just a fab time spent listening to this great story. Highly recommend it to all who likes JAFF.
