Just wonderful. I listened to the audiobook on my commute and was mesmerized. I am a huge fan of pride and prejudice and know the book very well, and think those in that position would enjoy this book most. But even beyond that, I loved learning about the lives of those who were below stairs and entirely ignored in Austen's work. It was quite masterful how Baker managed to remain entirely true to the original and still fashion a story that lived independently. The characters were alive and engaging- I found myself urging them on as I listened. Both the book itself and the audio version and absolutely worth reading/listening.
