Whatever happened to Lydia Bennett, the brash troublemaker from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice? Did she continue to wreak havoc with her impulsive ways? Or did married life help her settle down? Did she ever grow up and become the great lady she longed to be?
Lovingly Yours, Lydia lets us peek into her diary, her correspondence, and the letters of her friends and family. From the manor houses of Regency England, to the battlefields at Waterloo, Lydia is always in the thick of things.
Testimonials"Fred Schloemer has managed to channel the spirit of Jane Austen, who would be well pleased with the flowering of Lydia, the youngest and most spoiled of the Bennett sisters. Fred picks up Lydia's story as readers are left to ponder if the impulsive child will be able to become the steady wife and matron her husband needs. Her story is sometimes torturous but always engaging." --Otis Amanda Dick, author, historian, actor, and storyteller
"A fun read, with wry humor and clever plot twists. Fred Schloemer definitely has a great gift for narrative." --David Williams, Author, editor, and curator of the Williams-Nichols Institute at University of Louisville
