A mediocre style and enormous improbabilities

From the first pages of this book, which rewrites Pride and Prejudice through letters sent to the protagonists, I wondered about the style and improbabilities. And following my reading me unfortunately confirmed my first impression. I must honestly say that despite the qualities of lightness and its entertaining side, I found this book quite bad, a poor style and, unlike other books of Amanda Grange, not respecting the characters.

And sometimes as a demonstration is worth a thousand words, I put a few excerpts:

Letter from Mr. Darcy father dying, known for his kindness, to his son. Very first recommendation of the letter. "Never forget who you are, and always keep your superiority in ways that reflect that of your birth Do not encourage ordinary people to show themselves familiar with you." When we know that he raised the son of the manager as his son ...

Mr Darcy, announcing the death of his father to his cousin. "I crossed the input current and the staircase seemed endless Finally, I arrived at her door and stopped for a moment to regain composure . " The author sometimes forgets that she chose to write an epistolary novel!

Charles Bingley letter to his sister: "Yes, Caroline, I designated the Darcy well, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, of Pemberley (in italics) Tell me, will he ever we write its name in italics If c.? This is the case, I'll have to buy me new feathers, because it damages the tip. " Ridiculous!

Letter from Mr Bingley father to his son: "Mom, I told him, it is useless to give him all this education Mr." but she wanted to send you to college, and I dreaded the consequences " .

Mr Darcy's letter to his sister: "Caroline propose to cut my pen, but as you know, I like to do it myself." No comment.

In any case, I must admit, some sentences have me a good laugh, but I'm not sure it was their first goal!
