Friday Favorites: Pride and Prejudice - Meet Mr. Wickham

There's a handsome new soldier in Meryton, and he's caught the eye of everyone from the Bennets to Mr. Darcy. That's right, it's none other than Mr. Wickham, and after seeing Mr. Darcy's reaction to him in Meryton, Elizabeth's curiosity is insatiable. Luckily, Mr. Wickham is more than willing to share the story of his many misfortunes. Elizabeth knew Mr. Darcy was proud, but this is another level of cruelty she wasn't expecting. Yet, with all these facts and dates, Elizabeth is sure there's no way it could be false. In this week's Friday Favorites, revisit Mr. Wickham and his definitely-true account of his past, and let the comforting familiarity of his tale help you forget your day and drift into a night of gentle sleep. -----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!
