About this listen

"She is tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me."

This indelible utterance stands as a momentous insult in the annals of literature, weaving its threads through the fates of two souls attracted to each other from their very first encounter. This slight birthed prejudices, kindled misunderstandings, and set ablaze a whirlwind journey for our dear couple within Jane Austen's cherished masterpiece, Pride and Prejudice.

The potency of an insult is profound, evoking diverse emotions and molding thoughts, behaviors, and engagements. Insults possess a remarkable capacity to linger in memory, casting their influence across lifetimes and permanently reshaping the path of one's existence. It is not unfair to assert that insults hold lives of their own. Regrettably, even an unborn insult has the power to reshape lives, as our dear couple discovers in this variation.

Meet Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy like no other, the embodiment of every Regency lady's romantic dream: a gentleman to the core and one who remains so even after facing numerous trials. Insults is a novel that heralds the power of true love and how it always prevails.

Insults form the fulcrum of the tale in this variation, but not in the way you think. The most infamous insult mentioned above does make an appearance, but not the way you think.

This is a Pride and Prejudice variation. It loosely follows the original work for the initial third. However, the rest of the book diverges into a completely different storyline. This is not solely a Darcy and Elizabeth novel. Listener discretion is advised.

Excellent variation on Jane Austin's book Pride & Prejudice. Recommended for an enjoyable book on a summer evening.

I liked that it is well written and realistic. Loved the performance voices, Darcy is blind and Elizabeth is so dang stubborn to the point of being stupid.
I appreciate the author did not make magic appear but made a plausible meeting. I admit Wickham is far fetched but still made a good lead in helping the story along. I did cry and wanted to stop reading. But I Love the ending,

So much heartache

I bought this audiobook because I love the dual narration of Elizabeth Klett and Harry Frost. I liked the various points of view in this book as it was interesting and different from other books. I must admit that, for me, there was too much angst in the book, and I found it a difficult experience. However, I would recommend it to anyone who is an angst fan since it was very well done.

Wonderful Narration

This may be the best pride and prejudice variation of the hundreds i've read.

I wasn't sure about the format. However, it is perfectly suited four, the narrators, especially for harry frost. I've had problems with listening to his previous narrations, but this one was perfectly suited for him.

Worth every cent, a great bargain for 1 credit

Can't wait for the next offering from this author.

Stellar

This variation was interesting. It encompassed all of the normal conflict of P&P, along with some new issues for the characters to deal with. It takes place over a great deal of time. I enjoyed it.

I first read this ebook. The cover attracked me. It still does. The tear. Darcy is not the arrogant person as in most tales. But he remains, Darcy. A few character twists and angst worthy. There is a lot that occurs and much time passes but the pacing of this story is on point. A definite page turner and of course repeat listen. As soon as I saw who was narrating I preordered. All the characters come to life.

Great pacing

Several points of view from different characters, wonderful twists and turns. A completely new revision of the classic pride and prejudice.

Wonderful take on a classix

What twists and turns this variation takes! Thoroughly enjoyable with just the right amount of angst and swooning. Others have mentioned the great pacing of the story and I wholeheartedly agree. The story is well-developed with some depth. It’s an epic E&D story extending into the future beyond canon. Harry Frost and Elizabeth Klett do a phenomenal job of bringing all the characters to life. I loooove this Mr Darcy. So vulnerable! Practically perfect! Just a note to future listeners: this is a clean story, but does include the topic of sexual abuse. NOTHING graphic! Just a forewarning if you are sensitive to the topic. If that is not a trigger for you, I’m sure you’ll love this variation!

Oh, the tear!
