Über diesen Titel
“Mr Darcy, I am eager to hear your explanation for the fact that quite a few people believe we are engaged.”
It starts with a bit of well-meant advice. Colonel Fitzwilliam suggests to his cousin Darcy that, before he proposes to Elizabeth Bennet in Kent, perhaps he ought to discuss his plans with their families first.
What neither man could have predicted however was that Lord Matlock would write the news to his sister, or that Viscount Saye would overhear and tell his friends, or that his friends might slip a little and let their friends know as well. The news spreads just as quickly through Hertfordshire once Mrs Bennet opens the express Mr Bennet receives from Mr Darcy, and in a matter of days, it seems like everyone knows that Mr Darcy has proposed marriage to Elizabeth Bennet.
Everyone, that is, except Elizabeth herself.
Her refusal is quick and definite - until matters of reputation, hers as well as Jane’s, are considered. Then Mr Darcy makes another offer: summer at Pemberley so that Jane can be reunited with Mr Bingley and so that he can prove to Elizabeth he is not what she thinks of him. Falling in love with him is naturally impossible...but once she knows the man he truly is, will she be able to help herself?
©2019 Amy D'Orazio (P)2019 Amy D'OrazioThe discussions among family start well with a good idea by the one it affects most, but as soon as this good idea is spoken out loud, the others convince the Person otherwise.
It is maddening and it was soon too much.
Elisabeth jumps into missunderstandings like the frog into a Pond and Darcy seems to believe that Bingleys dissolute behaviour in the last months would have no impact on Jane and Elisabeth. In fact he not even thinks that they should know about it to build their own opinions?
He lies! And disguises! And evades.
It’s very exhausting.
Very very sad.
I think that in variations at least the character of the two main characters must be like in the original. And this is not the case in this one.
The lack of communication is bad.and stretches the audiobook to double at least and has many very bad consequences.
Days in each other’s company and they have not one conversation in which they talk strait and true. Always around the topics that truly interests them.
Elisabeth doesn’t help him at all. She is very silly and unbalanced. He too for that matter.
It’s a farce. At half time after much exhaustion I decided to take it as a parody.
That helped immensely.
P&P comedians stumbling around Pemberley grounds always seeking mishaps in their way…
That didn’t stop from clapping my hand to the forehead at the next blunder, misconception, concede or simply stupidity.
Adequately performed.
I gave up. This story is exhausting.
