Download An Assembly Such as This: A Novel of Fitzwilliam Darcy, Gentleman AudioBook Free
"Ten thousand per year and a large estate in Derbyshire!" That was all Mrs. Bennet desired to know of Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy before she began to entertain desires that certain of her daughters would entice his attention. In Take great pride in and Prejudice, Jane Austen reveals little of her creation's history or present before banishing him for quite two thirds of her book. But, who's Fitzwilliam Darcy?
An Assembly Such as This, the first booklet of the Fitzwilliam Darcy, Gentleman trilogy, answers that interesting question by firmly taking the reader into Darcy's world, a world completely different from Elizabeth Bennet's. Chronicling Darcy's supervision of his naive good friend Charles Bingley and his growing fascination with Elizabeth Bennet, it culminates with the devastating ball at Netherfield and Darcy's return to London with the express goal of forgetting Elizabeth amidst the dizzying and dangerous whirl of Regency contemporary society.
