| Summary, Etc. |
"Celebrate Jane Austen's classic novels with this short story anthology starring forgotten characters as they experience their own happy endings. In honor of her 250th birthday, nine authors have come together with wildly imaginative reboots of the lives of several of Jane Austen's minor characters. Written with plenty of love and wit, these clever stories star everyone from Pride and Prejudice's snobbish Caroline Bingley to the modern descendant of Sense and Sensibility's Eliza Williams and much more. Blurring genres and taking us across the oceans, Ladies in Waiting is a heartfelt celebration of Jane Austen and her timeless masterpieces."-- Provided by publisher.
