About this title

Synopsis

For all those to whom "Pride and Prejudice" is the romantic novel, Mary Street's remarkable and convincing telling of Darcy's story will prove irresistible. "Pride and Prejudice" is Elizabeth Bennet's story which reveals little of Darcy's innermost thoughts. Now in "The Confession of Fitzwilliam Darcy" the reader is privy to the torment suffered by Darcy who, conscious of his superior position, is nevertheless drawn irresistibly to the delightful Elizabeth. Darcy tells us of his relationship with his sister Georgiana, his cousins Colonel Fitzwilliam and the dastardly Wickham. Revealed, too, is the background to Darcy's persuasion of and subsequent confession to Bingley and what happened when he received a visit from his formidable aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh. All his encounters with Elizabeth are seen through his eyes and, in the aftermath of his disastrous proposal, we learn how his pride and arrogance were tempered by his unquenchable love for her.
