Beschreibung
The Other Bennet Sister presents Mary Bennet in a whole new light as she becomes Austen's newest leading lady. Now a major BBC One TV series starring Richard E. Grant, Ruth Jones and Ella Bruccoleri. 'Will delight Pride and Prejudice fans' – The Independent One by one, the Bennet sisters have found their place. But what happens to the one left behind? This is the brilliant, witty, and heartbreakingly relatable story of Mary Bennet. In Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, we know the fates of the five Bennet girls. But while her sisters are celebrated for their beauty or their wit, Mary is the "plain" middle sister, the introvert in a family of extroverts, and a constant disappointment to her mother. Lonely and lacking connection, Mary turns to the only place she feels safe: her books. Determined to be "right" since she can never be "beautiful," she prepares for a life of solitude at Longbourn. One by one, the other sisters move on: Jane and Lizzy for love, and Lydia for respectability. Mary is destined to remain single, at least until her father dies and the house is bequeathed to the reviled Mr Collins. But when that fateful day finally arrives, the life Mary expected is turned upside down. In the face of uncertainty, she slowly discovers that there is hope for the "plain" sister after all. . . Experience the witty, life-affirming tale of a young woman finally finding her place in the world. This is Mary Bennet's story. 'It's difficult not to race through those final pages' – Jo Baker, author of Longbourn
