A very endearing heroine but 1000 miles of Jane Austen

After the incredible adventures of the five daughters of Mr. Darcy, and especially those of Alethea, here we are with a new Darcy out of nowhere and its problems. And unfortunately, say it right away, this opus it is closer to the former than the latter.

In "The Adventures of Miss Alethea Darcy," Elizabeth Aston had shown us that yes, she knew how good books, especially when she left Jane Austen quiet. Here, however, she insists on talking Darcy us all the time singing, inventing cousins ​​shovel and merrily plunder the characters and plots of our favorite author, without the hassle of the fact that it these springs already used it in his previous books!

Darcy Cassandra is the daughter of Anne de Bourgh and Thadeus Darcy (yes, I assure you) and she finds herself in an embarrassing situation as it fled with Wickham (no, it's not called and but might as well!) and she now refuses to marry! It is Horatio Darcy (yes, another cousin), a lawyer, who will try to reason ...

You will also learn with joy that all girls of that time are to be completely foolish, are the debauched, or both, and that men are either: perverts of the worst kind, or absolutely heroic beings willing to ignore all , reputation, career, family for the woman they love!

Amidst all this, when we come to forget the insults and inconsistencies, we still takes a liking to this poor Cassandra and there is concern about his fate. I do not deny that the book reads easily and quickly and that he fulfills quite well its role of entertainment.

But as we approach the denouement, I can not help but to want to pull my hair! And some already difficult to believe that Mr Darcy was finally willing to marry Elizabeth! There was so against this union as social prejudices but neither difference nor ruined reputation! Here it is as if Darcy married Lydia after his escape with Wickham! Besides the dramatization of the end, a real vaudeville!
