The Women of Pemberley: A Companion Volume to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice

Rebecca Collins

The Women of Pemberley follows the lives of five women, some from the beloved works of Jane Austen, some new from the author’s imagination, into a new era of post industrial revolution England, at the start of the Victorian Age. Vast changes are in motion, as they were throughout this dynamic century.
The women, like many of Jane Austen’s heroines, are strong, intelligent individuals, and the depth and variety of the original characters develop into a series of episodes linked together by their relationship to each other and to Pemberley, which is the heart of their community.
The central themes of love, friendship, marriage, and a sense of social obligation remain as do the great political and social issues of the age.

The stories are so well told one would enjoy them even if they were not sequels to any other novel. -Book News

Yet another wonderful work by Ms. Collins. -Beverly Wong, author of Pride & Prejudice Prudence
