【BBC影集封面版】班奈特家最小的女兒瑪莉➤《傲慢與偏見》中不起眼的她
改編BBC電視影集，即將上映！《傲慢與偏見》改寫創作的出色典範！請聽聽班奈特家最小的女兒——瑪莉的故事！
她是瑪莉，那個你在讀《傲慢與偏見》時不會在意的─班奈特家五姊妹裡的最不起眼的一個。
她被描述成一個書呆子，喜歡左派思想，整天埋首書中，不愛社交，外貌也沒有她的姊妹們來得出眾，在舞會表演唱歌卻被爸爸要她不要再丟人現眼。
但如果瑪莉有能力選擇，如果她其實也有自己的意志與想法，是否會活出不同於其他人的人生？
故事從《傲慢與偏見》裡的舞會開始，從瑪莉的視角出發，有別於擅長唇槍舌戰的伊麗莎白，讓讀者一窺她早慧的內心、細膩且獨特的想法。
瑪莉因緣際會和伊麗莎白的摯友‧夏洛特成為朋友，甚至與在書中被嘲弄的柯林斯先生有著一段充滿智慧、耐人尋味的友誼。
面對兩個姐姐相繼出嫁和對她態度冷淡的父母，瑪莉慢慢開始思考，如果她想要獲得理解與關注，她也必須做出改變。
離開夏洛特家後，她前往倫敦的姑姑與姑丈家居住，不同於一心只想把女兒們早日嫁掉的班奈特太太，他們對瑪莉顯現出真正的關懷，而瑪莉也在這裡展開了另一段際遇......
作者Janice Hadlow巧妙地改寫了這個書中平板的角色，由於瑪莉在《傲慢與偏見》中是遺世獨立的存在，珍和伊麗莎白是一類，凱蒂和莉蒂雅又是另一類，只有瑪莉彷彿不屬於任何一邊，正是因為如此，也只有瑪莉可以展現出不同於她姐妹們─不同於珍奧斯汀原著的─獨特魅力，精心的布局與對白，會讓讀者忍不住真心應援支持瑪莉，即便是個不起眼的女主角，也值得一個美好的結局。
Coming soon to BBC One, starring Richard E. Grant, Ruth Jones and Ella Bruccoleri
'Will delight Pride and Prejudice fans' – Independent
One by one, the Bennet sisters have found their place. But what happens to the one left behind? The Other Bennet Sister is the brilliant, witty, and heartbreakingly relatable story of Mary Bennet.
In Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, we know the fates of the five Bennet girls. But while her sisters are celebrated for their beauty or their wit, Mary is the "plain" middle sister, the introvert in a family of extroverts, and a constant disappointment to her mother.
Lonely and lacking connection, Mary turns to the only place she feels safe: her books. Determined to be "right" since she can never be "beautiful," she prepares for a life of solitude at Longbourn.
One by one, the other sisters move on: Jane and Lizzy for love, and Lydia for respectability. Mary is destined to remain single, at least until her father dies and the house is bequeathed to the reviled Mr Collins.
But when that fateful day finally arrives, the life Mary expected is turned upside down. In the face of uncertainty, she slowly discovers that there is hope for the "plain" sister after all. . .
Experience the witty, life-affirming tale of a young woman finally finding her place in the world.
This is Mary Bennet's story.
