If were possible to rate a book 0, that is what I would give this book.
If you a fan of Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice and are looking for another chance to spend time with the characters you loved so well, do NOT read Pride/Prejudice. I confess to abandoning the attempt after the first 50 pages.
I turned to the afterword to see if the author could provide any justification for her desecration of Austens characters. Herendeen says that Pride/Prejudice is the hidden story behind the one Austen shared with us. According to Herendeen, that hidden story is that all the major characters in the original Pride and Prejudice are bisexual.
Pride/Prejudice is a story of Ms. Herendeens own devising. She has borrowed the characters and the plot from Jane Austen, but the spirit of the original is sadly lacking.
