The Bennet family of Longbourn, Hertfordshire, had long been known to its neighbours as exceptionally learned though eccentric, but was tolerated because the first Bennets settled there more than four hundred years before, just after the great plague. Both the grandfather and father of the master, Mr. Thomas Bennet, married blue-stocking wives from the Continent. These circumstances had a profound effect on Mrs. Bennet and her five daughters. Because of this broader worldview, the Bennet family was more aware of, and affected by some historical events of the period far outside the twenty-four families around Meryton than what one would expect of minor gentry in the backwater. Elizabeth Bennet had a superior mind and the self-assurance of a modern young woman; Mr. Darcy, the too proud master of Pemberley, Derbyshire was properly humbled by Mrs. Bennet during their first meeting. How would the courtship between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy go under these different scenarios? How would Mr. Darcy behave when his pride was under good regulation?If you stripped away the changed circumstances, the characters would behave fairly similarly as in canon. If you are looking for extra angst or extra thrills, you will be disappointed. Pride and Prejudice has been classified as a comedy of manners. It is of course a huge challenge for even a seasoned writer to have anywhere close to the genius of Jane Austen to dissect and depict Regency manners with such a sharp insight. The ‘manners’ part of the Regency era was particularly difficult for a twenty-first century first-time fiction writer to emulate. In fact, the reader may detect some modern sensibilities in the Elizabeth in this story: self-assurance, resourcefulness, independence, etc. Hopefully, this story offers some amusing bits to make it a fun read. All verifiable historical characters, buildings and events appearing in this story are borrowed purely as vehicles in a work of fiction, but as much respect as possible is paid to the historical accuracy (as obtained through brief internet searches and well-researched references) in the description of these entities. Chapter notes are provided where appropriate for those who are interested. As of May/June 2021, the whole story has been revised - errors largely corrected, the length slightly shortened to improve the flow of the story, and a few extra chapter notes added.
In Feb. 2024, the whole story was revised for error corrections before the launch of the audible edition. Ficción Histórica Ficción Literaria Género Ficción

I really liked the story line. I loved Elizabeth as an inventor and would want to see even more development in that area.

Finally… a story about industry and inventions!

I like the way the characters are portrayed and the wealth of the Gardeners and the Bennetts. Also liked that the Bennetts, including Mrs Bennett, were intelligent.

Great story

I dislike Virtual Voice, but it wasn’t too bad in this audiobook. Has the technology improved? This Unusual and Very Interesting Variation makes the VV issues tolerable. I really enjoyed this version of P&P with the Bennett family so much more intelligent, harmonious and even wealthier than in canon. The story held my attention throughout.

VV not too bad and Story is Very Interesting

I loved this scenario. It’s nice to have an Elizabeth that is allowed to showcase her intelligence and worthiness. Too many Jaff stories have a shrewish unreasonably demanding and unforgiving character. It makes one wonder what would make a man of Darcy’s status interested in her since she is bringing nothing tangible to the table. In some of these books I have thought he would be better off to walk away. His groveling too much to be believed. In this story I appreciated that the Bennet’s are much more important and palatable. I’ve had enough of the same tired exploits of Wickham, Lydia and Mrs. Bennet’s wailing. I found this book much more entertaining and appreciated the creativity and the notes to authenticate the events of the period. While I prefer a talented reader I did not find the VV intolerable. I prefer stories with all the Bennet sisters pretty and Charlotte attractive too. Lovely story that I very much enjoyed. Brava, well done.
