As I say I don’t think telling the story is part of the plan…I think the adult reader may be required to “fill in the blanks” which is fine by me ;)

Thanks Melissa, that’s really helpful. I’m so pleased you like the look of the book enough to order it;)

I found a video on the author’s Amazon page that gives a brief overview P&P and Moby Dick, the two books they’re releasing this fall. I’m ordering a copy!

Ooops; sorry to have misled you! It's not available in the U.S. till November 20th. The way I read the description, it tells the story using only 12 very-easy-to-read words. Words used Pride and Prejudice with such limited means. I'm looking forward to it. And I ordered it for MYSELF! :-)

LOL- well there you are! The books are not published here yet:we have to wait till November to see them. Do you have yours Cathy? If so is it as we have assumed, not a re-telling but a book that uses incidents from the novel as an illustration/example of certain emotions?
