This is an attempt to
capture the entelechy of Jane Austen's writings. Prior to writing HE, Ms. Sommer studied the entire Jane Austen
collection. The style is intended to mimic her writing and time period, but the story, its characters,
its settings, and everything else contained within are products of Ms. Sommer's own creativity and imagination. The Jane Austen
entelechy is encapsulated in a brief quotation:
“A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony
in a moment.”
Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice
