Description
“Should she reject me again, I shall have to wed—as I swore I never would—for dynasty alone. I can only ever love Elizabeth Bennet.”
Love is put to the test in this fresh spin on of Jane Austen’s classic, entwining original and classic characters in a tale of passion and self-discovery.
In a timeless story of love amidst the clash of social classes, Darcy is faced with a terrible choice: must he stay in London to oblige Wickham to marry Lydia, or go to Rome, to salvage the family’s reputation?
Alice McVeigh puts the spotlight on Darcy in this witty and imaginative re-telling of Austen’s starriest novel.
If you think you know Pride and Prejudice . . . think again.
The missing scenes. The missing perspectives. The astonishingly realistic new dialogue.
“McVeigh’s prose and plotting are pitch-perfect.” —Publisher’s Weekly.
With a new Darcyesque slant, omitted scenes from the original, and an extra helping of humor—as well as witty excerpts from The Wisdom and Wit of Miss Mary Bennet—this is a fresh new Pride and Prejudice to treasure, a P&P with (wedding) bells on!
Available for pre-order June 25. Will be published June 30th (2023)
