Mr. Darcy's Foreboding: A Pride and Prejudice Variation | Glenna Mason
1 post
At the Meryton Assembly early in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, the proud Fitzwilliam Darcy calls Elizabeth Bennet, everyone else's belle of the ball, "tolerable." She hears him, unleashing a prejudice, which takes most of the novel to assuage. Yet, in Mr. Darcy's Foreboding, a series of mysterious incidences conspire to create a more rapid repair of their initial relationship. What are these villainous conundrums? Are the same old nemeses involved: Wickham, Caroline, Mr. Collins, Aunt Catherine, Lydia? If so, which ones, why and when? And what do they perpetrate? Kidnapping? Robbery? Or worse? Perhaps! By the end of Mr. Darcy's Foreboding a very prescient Fitzwilliam Darcy solves the enigmas, assisted by our favorites: Elizabeth, Bingley and Colonel Fitzwilliam. Mary, Anne, Georgiana, Kitty and of course Jane join with a bevy of new characters to enhance this soon-to-be classic mystery romance.
