Publisher's Summary:
Pride and Prejudice is the greatest romance of all time, and in this enjoyable retelling, Amanda Grange allows us to see the events of Jane Austens famous novel from Mr Darcys point of view. Scenes only hinted at in the original are here recorded in detail and brought to life.
Darcy writes of his horror at discovering his sisters plans to elope with George Wickham, his efforts to separate Charles Bingley from Miss Jane Bennet, and his disgust at having to arrange a marriage between George Wickham and Miss Lydia Bennet. But, most satisfying of all, he discloses his feelings for Elizabeth the full story of their courtship and a tantalising glimpse of their early married life.
Members Reviews:
a good read
A interesting idea, to give the Pride and Prejudice story from the other point of view. The author manages to make him both the austere character of the novel, but also adds his inner life and highlights his affectionate relationship with his sister.It also gives a glimpse into his thought and feelings about Elizabeth and how he gradually changes his feelings and attitude. Well written by the author who manages to maintain a similarity of feeling with the writing, which gives an impression of continuity.
Stick to the original!
Having just read 'Pride and Prejudice' I thought I might enjoy a spin-off and 'Darcy's Diary' came recommended. It is awful. A shameless re-writing of Austen's text with some gratuitous 'kissing bits' towards the end. Original insights into Darcy's motivations and actions are few and fairly dull and the tying up of the occasional loose end shows little imagination. Really, really bad. I feel embarrassed at having bought it. The narrator handles the different voices well and is the only good thing about the experience.
Darcy's side of the story
Such a lovely story and keeps with the feel of the original Pride and Prejudice. Narrator makes Darcy feel old at times, but he tells the story well.
