Pride & Un-Prejudiced: When Harry Met Darcy

Pride & Un-Prejudiced: When Harry Met Darcy

The cherished classic Jane Austen story "Pride & Prejudice" has been loved and lauded by readers since it was first published in 1813. But what if Elizabeth had been born a boy, instead of a girl? What if the Bennet parents were just as concerned with marrying their gay son off to a wealthy husband as they were their daughters? What if there was a parallel universe where no one in early 1800's England would bat an eye at two young men dancing at a ball?

In Pride & Un-Prejudiced, Elizabeth Bennet becomes Harrison Bennet, the clever, outspoken, book-loving son sandwiched in between his four sisters. In this adaptation, readers can experience their favorite love story through the eyes of a lead character who is so familiar, yet so new. By slipping Harry into Lizzy's role in an adaptation that stays as true to the original text as possible, readers experience a 19th century England where men and women are equally likely suitors for the rich and desirable, parents embrace their children equally regardless of their sexual orientation, and the rigid gender roles of the era are softened. Read on as Harry makes social calls with his sisters, lovingly tends to his sister Jane, gossips with his best friend Charlotte, earns the jealousy of Caroline Bingley and, through his wit, cleverness and beautiful eyes, wins the heart of Mr. Darcy.

Re-imagining Lizzy as her male counterpart, Harry, brings Pride and Prejudice into a whole new light--the story stays the same, but everything and everyone around him changes.
