Friday Favorites: Pride and Prejudice - Elizabeth Learns the Truth About Bingley and Jane

from Jane Austen Bedtime Stories · host Jane Austen Bedtime Pod

Elizabeth has been enjoying her walks around Rosings park, run-ins with Mr. Darcy notwithstanding. Today, she's run into a more pleasant companion, Colonel Fitzwilliam. After seemingly letting her down easy about his own marriage prospects, their conversation turns back to Mr. Darcy, and Elizabeth soon learns a shocking truth. It was none other than Mr. Darcy who stepped in to stop the potential marriage between Mr. Bingley and Jane. The news is so distressing that Elizabeth is immediately unwell. In this week's Friday Favorites, Elizabeth's contempt for Darcy reaches its peak, and as her feelings rage, let the familiar beats of her story help you end your week with a night of deep and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!
