Longbourn / Jo Baker. - First U.S. Edition. - 331 pages ; 25 cm
"Originally published in Great Britain by Transworld, an imprint of the Random House Group Ltd., London." "THIS IS A BORZOI BOOK."
A novel whose principal characters are the servants in Jane Austen's Pride and prejudice. Sarah, the orphaned housemaid, spends her days scrubbing the laundry, polishing the floors, and emptying the chamber pots for the Bennet household. But there is just as much romance, heartbreak, and intrigue downstairs at Longbourn as there is upstairs. When a mysterious new footman arrives, the orderly realm of the servants' hall threatens to be completely, perhaps irrevocably, upended.
