The Longbourn Letters: The Correspondence between Mr Collins & Mr Bennet de Rose Servitova

Cette "austenerie" sera sûrement l'une des prochaines que j'achèterai, une fois le confinement terminé.
J'ai lu d'excellentes critiques sur la finesse d'écriture et l'humour, et j'avoue que le concept m'intrigue assez. Ce roman épistolaire a au moins le mérite de changer des habituelles romances  

Citation :

Where Pride and Prejudice ends, a new relationship begins.
Good-humoured but detached and taciturn, Mr Bennet is not given to intimacy. Largely content with his life at Longbourn, he spends his evenings in the solitude of his library, accompanied only by a glass of port and a good book. But when his cousin, the pompous clergyman Mr Collins, announces his intention to visit, Mr Bennet is curious to meet and appraise the heir to his estate.
Despite Mr Bennet’s initial discouragement, Mr Collins quickly becomes a frequent presence in his life. They correspond regularly, with Mr Collins recounting tales of his follies and scrapes and Mr Bennet taking great pleasure from teasing his unsuspecting friend.
When a rift develops between the men, Mr Bennet is faced with a choice: he must withdraw into isolation once again or acknowledge that Mr Collins has brought something new and rich to his life.

Ce côté me parait très prometteur, et puis Mr Collins n'est pas le personnage à qui on pense généralement pour les "austenerie", cela devrait être original

Ah oui là au moins il y a de l'originalité. en plus, ce ne sera pas une romance (enfin j'espère ).

Mais c'est clair que si on retrouve les voix des 2 personnages, cela peut être très drôle.
