A covenant of marriage - legally binding, even for an unwilling bride!
Defined as a formal, solemn, and binding agreement or compact, a covenant is commonly used with regard to relations among nations or as part of a contract. But it can also apply to a marriage as Elizabeth Bennet learns when her father binds her in marriage to a man she dislikes. Against her protests that she cannot be bound against her will, the lady is informed that she lives under her father’s roof and, consequently, is under his control. She is a mere pawn in the proceedings.
With such an inauspicious beginning, how can two people so joined ever make a life together?

In the beginning, Lizzy is very, very, angry and bitter as well, even more so than in any other variation, and it’s hard to listen to her tirades. There are also a few twists and changes but it all stays very true to JAFF.
Will look for more by this author.

The narrator was good, but the production irritated me due to the frequent piano music interruptions. There were slight sound effects (doors shutting, carriage wheels on the road, background conversation) that were not bad or distracting at all, but the frequent piano music (end of a scene, end of chapters and beginning of chapters) that I absolutely did not like.
I definitely will listen to this again, and again.

The fate of the whole family would be miserable and the remaining daughters would be treated as pariahs. Very sad and disturbing but the society was unforgiving.
Seeing Lizzy so sad, disillusioned and angry was painful. No spark of liveliness, just resentment. Her anger at Darcy was caused by all the years of fears, disappointment, injustice of being punished for the wrongs she had not committed. Poor Darcy, luckily he is made of strong mettle. And I loved Mr. and Mrs Gardiners good judgement by pushing ODC together against all odds. As independent as Lizzy was, she knew very well what duties a wife had and would have not questioned them. Luckily a good and loving husband can do wonders to improve his wife’s wellbeing.
It was a second book narrated by Christopher Jarvis and I enjoyed it immensely. His one man performance with all sound effects and distinguishing narration from characters speech is engaging. I’m looking forward to listening to more of his productions.
Highly recommended for JAFF lovers, but with a warning to be prepared for cruel reality of women’s life in JA times.
Painfully realistic

For the audiobook it will help you to be aware that this is more like a radio drama and might take you a moment or two to become accustomed to it but once you do, just sit back & enjoy the story being played out for you.
