Attractive, expressive art is the highlight of this Regency romance graphic novel. The characters really come to life and I especially love how George, a trans man, is drawn, always completely himself even when forced to wear a skirt. (There's a wonderful section at the end in which the characters themselves explain the historical basis for the black and queer characters in the story.) cont.

willaful The aspect I least enjoyed were the confused plotlines borrowed from _Emma_. A more consistent retelling or a completely original story would have been better, in my opinion. But I do love the queer joy, the main character's overcoming her snobbishness, and happy endings all around.

Lord help me, I forgot just how far Kelly reaches in this book. While I do agree that the works of Very Important Men are mined for symbolism and veiled political statements while the books of this particular lady author are dismissed as fluffy romances, I will never be convinced that Edward was sent away due to strange sexual proclivities nor that Brandon was actually misleading Elinor to throw her off the scent of being Eliza's actual father. ⬇️

Andrea313 But the overarching theme, summarized here in Nathan Gelgud's illustration, is one that's undeniable. Kelly does bring to light some interesting facts about the finances of S&S and Jane's time and place, but her deep dive into the particulars of the so-called "careless men" of the novel fall flat for me. #PemberLittens #JaneAustenThenAndNow 1w

Crinoline_Laphroaig Wow. Strange proclivities????? I find it hard to believe, that of boring Edward.
