Darcy’s Days is a historical fiction that depicts literature’s favourite gentleman immersed in the world of 1796-1797 by the confessions of his own pen. This epistolary novel situates Darcy in the real history of England when Jane Austen first composed Pride and Prejudice. Darcy is a man of the world, a landed aristocrat with business concerns, a reader of science and literature, an advocate of revolution and the rights of man, and a citizen of a rising superpower involved in international warfare. He is also flesh and blood, and falls desperately in love with a woman of inferior birth and little beyond her wit and fine eyes to recommend her.

Darcy’s Days leads us through the turmoil of the early Romantic era as Darcy’s life moves in parallel with Wordsworth, Gilpin, De Quincey, Blake, Wollstonecraft, Godwin, and the baby Keats. The beloved and reviled characters of Pride and Prejudice assemble here to re-stage the original novel through the looking-glass of the hero’s perspective. Darcy’s confessions set off on an amusing, energetic romp through history, literature, and passionate love. It is a challenging novel that will appeal to pleasure readers and scholars alike.

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

Born in 1767 in Derbyshire, UK, near the village of Lambton, Fitzwilliam Darcy is the eldest child and only son of Lady Anne Darcy and Lord Franklin Darcy. He graduated from Cambridge University with first-class honours, and thereafter completed a young gentleman's tour of the Continent, visiting France, the Dutch Republic, Spain, the Swiss Republic, and Italy. Darcy returned to England just in time to mourn at the death-bed of his father, and assume the duties of managing his family estate of Pemberley. He has worked as landlord and master of the grand estate since 1792. This is his first book.

4,0 su 5 stelle Entertaining

Certainly a different view of Miss Austen's story and, while not completely consistent with her characters and timeline, not so far away as to be unrecognizable. Lively and full, I quite enjoyed it and have no hesitation in recommending it as a good read.

5,0 su 5 stelle Absolutely Amazing

This is a stunning piece of literature. I thought I would scan a bit and see what I thought, but I was totally pulled in and had to make myself put it down to do other things for a while. Rather than a simple retelling from his POV, this book sets Darcy in his historical context in a very realistic way. He considers taxes, harvests, wars, scientific advances, charities, imperialism, revolutions, the changing face of the landed gentry, and many other things as he goes through his daily life. His trip to the French Republic is especially interesting, and his imaginings about emigrating to America are fascinating. The language and vocabulary were beautiful and very consistent. No switching to random Americanisms. Even the spelling was nineteenth century. I do not know who wrote this, but that person spent a huge amount of time researching and studying with excellent results.
I particularly like how Darcy practiced changing himself into someone Elizabeth can respect. He makes great strides in his development in a natural way. Also, I liked watching him spend time with Georgiana, something I wish we had gotten from Jane herself. I thought he was a little too hard on himself over his conduct toward Wickham. Who knew Darcy wrote poetry? I enjoyed seeing those, especially the haiku.
Other reviewers have had a fit over his affair and the opium use. Did you really think a man his age was a virgin? Come on. I think it was very much in keeping with his character that he was celibate after Justine hurt him. Catching back up with her releases him from his hurt and frees him to move on. And do you think that he would try to claim his daughter and turn her into a bastard instead of a legitimate daughter? That would be cruel to her! She has a loving mother and a safe plan for the future. He could not choose anything else for her. It made perfect sense to me. The opium thing was a little odd, but it does move the plot along. You need to remember that people were experimenting with these things. At least he had limits on himself. Those are short passages and no reason to skip this book.
In all, I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys both Austen and history. It was thoroughly engrossing and thought-provoking. For instance, I had never considered what the tenants of the Bennet estate would think of the entailment to Collins. This book provides many such moments for pondering what it would have been like for Darcy in his everyday world.

5,0 su 5 stelle Trop trop bien !
Recensito in Francia il 12 novembre 2014

Voilà un livre que j'ai adoré lire du début à la fin. L'écriture est excellente, le style mordant, vif, plein de verve et d'humour. C'est intéressant, intelligent, prenant, captivant. On découvre ce qui se passe dans la tête et le cœur du personnage, mais aussi dans sa vie, dans son monde, dans son époque. Les références littéraires, politiques, économiques... enrichissent l'histoire et la rendent passionnante. Ce Darcy là est tout simplement irrésistible.

5,0 su 5 stelle Eindrucksvolles Portrait von Mr. Darcy und seiner Zeit
Recensito in Germania il 1 gennaio 2014
Acquisto verificato
Eine aussergewöhnliche Variante von Pride & Prejudice, aus der Sicht von Mr. Darcy erzählt. Die wunderbarste Liebesgeschichte aller Zeiten wird ergänzt mit einem faszinierenden Einblick in die Ereignisse der Zeitgeschichte. Die Person des Mr. Darcy bekommt damit eine neue, ungeahnte Tiefe. OK, die Opium-Träume sind ein bisschen seltsam, ansonsten habe ich das Buch mit Begeisterung verschlungen.

Recensito in Australia il 30 maggio 2015

Darcy’s diary from his arrival at Netherfield to the wedding. The romance is not center stage, but there is a lot about the context of Darcy’s life and about his efforts to respond to Lizzie’s criticisms. Excellent
