    Presumption: An Entertainment: A Sequel to Pride and Prejudice

    Description

    This witty sequel to Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" follows the fate of Georgiana Darcy, Mr. Darcy's younger sister, who must choose between two suitors, a well-placed navy captain and a brash young architect. Masterfully adapted to Austen's original nineteenth-century style, "Presumption" brings back to life the book's most memorable characters, the Bennets, Darcys, Collins, and de Bourghs.
    "An elegant emulation and continuation of "Pride and Prejudice." . . . Jointly composed by two admirers of Jane Austen, the book often achieves crisp replication of her style. . . . "Presumption" shows how sequel-writing can, like parody, be a sharp exercise in literary appreciation."--Peter Kemp, "Times Literary Supplement"
    Julia Barrett is a pseudonym for Julia Braun Kessler and Gabrielle Donnelly.
