The Other Bennett Sister |
Mary, the plain, insignificant middle sister here comes into her own. Initially following the original plot and characters to the point when Mr Bennet suddenly dies, Longbourn passes to the Collinses and we discover what happens next. There is a vivid sense of time and place and the author puts an alternative and interesting slant on to some of the original characters. Hopefully this should appeal to fans of Austen and Longbourn (bwl 98). Light and very enjoyable.
