Book Overview
What if Elizabeth Bennet's father insisted she marry Mr Collins? Would she be a dutiful daughter and submit to save her mother and sisters? Or would literature's favourite 'headstrong girl' do all in her power to find an alternative to a life of misery shackled to a ridiculous man? 'Mr Darcy Likes it Wild' blends elements of several classic road comedies to tell the tale of Lizzy's decision--the silliness of Billy Wilder's 'Some Like it Hot, ' the classic gender reversal comedy of Shakespeare's 'As You Like It, ' the hilarious dialogue of Georgette Heyer's 'The Corinthians' combined with Jane Austen's iconic story of mismatched lovers searching for understanding and joy in Regency England. Fitz and Eli's trip to happiness is filled with laughter, miscommunication, disguise of every sort, stolen passion and great adventure. This description may be from another edition of this product.
