the long version

"Lady Catherine de Bourgh is prepared to be very generous when it comes to medical care for her sickly daughter, Anne. Generous enough to lure noted physician Dr. Thomas Bennet to give up his London practice and move his family to Rosings Parks. But his good income comes with a price: complete dependence on his demanding patroness' every whim. Now the Bennet family is trapped, reliant on Lady Catherine for their survival. Their patroness controls every aspect of the Bennet household from the shelves in the closet to the selection of suitors for the five Bennet daughters. Now she has chosen a husband for headstrong Elizabeth Bennet, Mr. George Wickam. But Lady Catherine's nephew, Fitzwilliam Darcy, is not so sure. He is fascinated by the compassionate Elizabeth who seems to effortlessly understand everyone around her including him..."--Page 4 of cover.
