Book Description

What unfolds beyond the "happily ever after"? Worlds collide in Sybil G. Brinton's delightful reimagining of the romantic lives of familiar characters from all six of Jane Austen's cherished novels, including Emma, Pride and Prejudice, and Sense and Sensibility.

Published in 1913, foreshadowing modern fan fiction, this charming tale filled with wit and gentle humor follows beloved personalities, including Georgiana Darcy as she flees heartbreak for London, Kitty Bennet in her quest for love under Mrs. Emma Knightly's guidance, and Mary Crawford as she tries to rebuild her tarnished reputation and find love anew.

A testament to the enduring fandom of Austen's landed gentry world of manners, morals, and matrimonial pursuits in Regency-era England, Brinton's imaginative storytelling is a must-read for Austen literary enthusiasts.
