Unequal Affections
あらすじ・解説
When Elizabeth Bennet first knew Mr. Darcy, she despised him and was sure he felt the same. Angered by his pride and reserve, influenced by the lies of the charming Mr. Wickham, she never troubled herself to believe he was anything other than the worst of men - until, one day, he unexpectedly proposed.
Mr. Darcy's passionate avowal of love causes Elizabeth to reevaluate everything she thought she knew about him. What she knows is that he is rich, handsome, clever, and very much in love with her. She, on the other hand, is poor, and can expect a future of increasing poverty if she does not marry. The incentives for her to accept him are strong, but she is honest enough to tell him that she does not return his affections. He says he can accept that - but will either of them ever be truly happy in a relationship of unequal affection?
Diverging from Jane Austen's classic novel Pride and Prejudice at the proposal in the Hunsford parsonage, this story explores the kind of man Darcy is, even before his "proper humbling," and how such a man, so full of pride, so much in love, might have behaved had Elizabeth chosen to accept his original proposal.
Audible制作部より
What if Elizabeth Bennet didn’t turn down Mr. Darcy’s initial proposal? How would Mr. Darcy, a man full of pride and love, react? That’s just what Lara S. Ormiston sets out to explore in this reimaging of the classic Jane Austen novel, Pride and Prejudice. With an enchanting delivery from veteran performer, Carmela Corbett, Ormiston’s Unequal Affections is a humorous and touching examination on what happens to Mr. Darcy when he isn’t hit with the necessary humbling refusal of his proposal. Though knowledge of the original story isn’t necessary for this powerful story to resonate, fans of Jane Austen will delight in the alternate look at what could’ve happened to the man from Derbyshire.
