Helpful Score: 2
I picked this book up, thinking I would be dissapointed in what this author does to Jane Austen and her great work, but I found quite the oppoosite. Introducing the readers to Jane's first muse instead, a flesh and blood man named Fitzwilliam Darcy, from Pemberley Estates, Virginia, twenty-first century, Miss O'Rourke invites every Jane Austen fan in to see one theory on the creation of such an elemental literary figure. Please read this book and meet the man who believed in Jane Austen, who encouraged her and who--well, duh--loved her. And listen to his story through the one person who can believe him, and who has the evidence to prove his outlandish story true, a girl named Eliza. (tongue-in-cheek)
