Title: Austen lovers will be disappointed and/or disgusted
Product review: As a few other reviewers have hinted, this should more properly be titled "A Sequel to Andrew Davies' Pride and Prejudice" (although that does an injustice to Mr. Davies). It's not only wildly inaccurate in even the most basic facts (names, places, correct spellings), it needs an editor with a drawerful of red pencils. The prose at times is so purple it verges on ultraviolet. I wish I could have "awarded" it zero stars. Like a previous reviewer, I didn't even think it was worth donating to the library.And to our European friends (one of whom remarked that "only Americans will like it"), PLEASE don't group all of my countrywomen together - ANY discerning reader from ANY country will realize that this is just a bad book, period.
