Title: Worse than their first
Product review: I cannot decide if I deserve a pat on the back for being willing to give the Baders' attempts at Austen a second chance, or a kick in the pants for being such a sucker. This second attempt compounds the problems of the first. If possible, it is clumsier than Desire and Duty, more plodding, and less readable. Superlatives all, but insufficient to explain the depth of dismal writing to which this nonsense sinks. It would not be such a crime, were the authors not attempting to tag their awful efforts on the saleability of Ms. Austen's name and talent. She cannot defend herself. Hopefully her discerning readers will not fall into the trap I did. I now have TWO books in 48 years that I have returned to a bookstore. How SAD!
