Friday Favorites: Pride and Prejudice - Lydia Goes to Brighton

from Jane Austen Bedtime Stories · host Jane Austen Bedtime Pod

Elizabeth is back at Longbourn, but peace remains elusive, as Kitty and Lydia are desperate to follow the departing Meryton regiment to Brighton. Luckily for Lydia (and unluckily for Kitty), she receives an invitation as the particular friend of the colonel's wife. Elizabeth knows how badly this could end, and tries her best to convince their father not to permit Lydia to go, to no avail. At least there's one piece of good news out of all of it - the departure of the regiment means that Mr. Wickham is gone, and hopefully, out of their lives forever. As Lydia and the regiment make their way out of town, there's peace and quiet in the house. Let this week's Friday Favorites bring you your own peace and quiet as you settle in for another night of soft and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!
