Twelfth Night at Longbourn

Given Good Principles

By: Maria Grace

Narrated by: Elizabeth Klett

Twelfth Night - a night for wondrous things to happen. At least for other people.

In the months after her sisters' weddings, nothing has gone well for Kitty Bennet. Since Lydia's infamous elopement, her friends have abandoned her, and Longbourn is more prison than home. Not even Elizabeth's new status as Mrs. Darcy of Pemberley can repair the damage to Kitty's reputation. More than anything else, she wishes to leave the plain ordinary Kitty behind and become Catherine Bennet, a proper young lady.

Her only ray of hope is an invitation to Pemberley for the holidays. Perhaps there she might escape the effects of her sister's shame.

Getting to Pemberley is not as simple as it sounds. First she must navigate the perils of London society, the moods of Georgiana Darcy, and the chance encounter with the man who once broke her heart. Perhaps though, as Catherine, she might prove herself worthy of that gentleman's regard.

But, in an instant all her hopes are dashed, and her dreams of becoming Catherine evaporate. Will Kitty Bennet's inner strength be enough to bring her heart's desire?

On an ordinary night perhaps not, but on Twelfth Night, it just might be enough.

Enjoyable Audiobook

Interesting adaptation of Jane Austen with unexpected plot twists. Extremely well read by Elizabeth Klett; she does different voices and accents very well.

A fun story

A nice take and twist. Lydia and Caroline both dealt with in interesting way.

Some say this is not according to canon or characters different. But this is what these variations are all about and I do enjoy a different take.

THANK GOODNESS Pearl Hewett Isn't The Narrator!!!

Finally! The story can be appreciated because the narrator Elizabeth Klett gives a quality performance. Pleasant voice and great annunciation.

Light story

Fun story, although Pride and Prejudice figures act out of character, particularly Georgiana. Darcy and Elizabeth would not have treated her the way they did.
