📮 2 Pride and Prejudice Variations by Florence Gold (.ePUB)

Florence Gold’s existence is owed to Jane Austen’s timeless and invaluable legacy, which she bestowed upon the world two hundred years ago. I was raised on Austen’s books. 'Persuasion' and 'Pride and Prejudice' were constants on my grandmother’s bedside table. Although I read them from a young age, it wasn’t until I truly immersed myself in Austen’s literature that I understood why Granny Veronica liked the old lady and her 19th century literature so much. Strangely enough, more than a century after Austen’s passing, Granny found herself facing similar social issues to those of her favourite author—not being free to choose her own future or who to love, to fulfil her wish to study or have a profession. She was obliged to be a housewife like so many ladies at the beginning of the 20th century. One of the reasons I started my journey in Austenesque literature was to pay tribute to Granny Veronica and all the women whose dreams forever went unfulfilled. I have always written, yet for so long, I did not have the chance to write every day, to be a just a writer and live only for my books. This finally happened when I reached the age of a granny myself, although it was only possible because I had the chance to write in the digital age and because I am an IT specialist who contributed, during a twenty-five-year-long career, to the implementation of digital technology in education and culture.

Engagement of Convenience: A Pride and Prejudice Variation

Engagement of Convenience: A Pride and Prejudice Variation The autumn of 1811 arrives in Hertfordshire with an unexpected breath of joy. Netherfield is finally let, and after several rounds of eager speculation, all of which promise the arrival of a large party to occupy the fine estate, only five figures appear. Yet, through their elegant presence, they bring colour to the otherwise dull and sleepy town. Soon, the arrival of a militia regiment for the winter makes the hearts of all the young ladies beat faster. Alas, around the same time, Mr Bennet’s health rapidly declines, casting dark clouds over Longbourn, which, in the event of his death, will pass into the hands of a distant cousin, Mr Collins. Arriving at Longbourn amidst the torment triggered by Mr Bennet’s illness, Mr Collins becomes the salvation Mrs Bennet seeks when he seems ready to marry one of her daughters. In a passionate speech full of supplication, Mrs Bennet wants to force Elizabeth to marry her cousin and thus save their family. Torn between duty to her family and yearning for the beautiful life she has always dreamed of, supported by a father who has granted her trust and freedom, Elizabeth decides not to accept. Desperate, she rushes from her home and finds herself on the road to Meryton, seeking a solution that unexpectedly presents itself in the form of Mr Darcy. Overwhelmed by despair, she asks for his help, begging him to announce himself before her family as her betrothed only until she has the chance to depart for London. This is only the beginning of a chain of unforeseen events that change Elizabeth’s fate, pulling her between Longbourn and London in a whirlwind as she strives to reinvent her future and escape a marriage that will only bring her misery. Initially hesitant, Mr Darcy ultimately assists her—at times discreetly, at others more boldly—as she embarks on her courageous journey. Yet no matter how far from canon they may stray, one thing remains steadfast—the love between them, triumphant once again, despite every adversity, transforming a false engagement into a real marriage that will last a lifetime.
