WHO NEEDS MR DARCY ?
Book ID/图书代码： 07980012B55201
English Summary/英文概要： Mr Wickham turned out to be a disappointing husband in many ways, the most notable being his early demise on the battlefields of Waterloo. And so Lydia Wickham, nee Bennet, still not twenty and ever-full of an enterprising spirit, must make her fortune independently.
A lesser woman, without Lydia’s natural ability to flirt uproariously on the dancefloor and cheat seamlessly at the card table, would swoon in the wake of a dashing highwayman, a corrupt banker and even an amorous Royal or two. But on the hunt for a marriage that will make her rich, there’s nothing that Lydia won’t turn her hand to . . .
Taking in London, Paris and Brighton, Who Needs Mr Darcy? details the charming, lively and somewhat dastardly further exploits of the youngest Bennet sister. Pride and Prejudice this isn’t and Mr Darcy certainly won’t be rescuing her this time.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 无论从哪个方面来看，威克姆显然都是一名极不称职的丈夫，数年前他从滑铁卢战场临阵脱逃的事实早已说明了他的为人。而莉迪亚•威克姆，也就是曾经的贝内特小姐，这位不到二十的妙龄少妇可不想就这样葬送了自己的大好人生，怀着一直以来秉持的大胆冒险的精神，莉迪亚决心离开威克姆去寻找自己的下一段美好姻缘。
莉迪亚是那种天生便极具魅力的女人，带动舞池的气氛是她的本能，即便是在牌桌上偷梁换柱她也能做得天衣无缝。她天生是男女游戏里的女王，倘若今天在这里的是另一个稚嫩得多的女人，只怕早已被痞痞的拦路大盗迷得神魂颠倒，或是深陷邪气的银行家的情网，甚至疯狂了恋上多情的皇室成员。莉迪亚与她们不同，她深谙想要钓一个金龟婿，就必须不择手段。。。。。。
以伦敦，巴黎和布莱顿为背景，《谁会需要达西先生？》以详尽地笔触描绘了贝内特家的小女儿生动鲜活、充满刺激以及小小腹黑的求爱之旅，不同于《傲慢与偏见》里的爱情故事，这一次显然不会再有达西先生帮她收拾烂摊子了。(DC)

The idea for my trip germinated when I first saw my friend’s sports car in a field on the Isle of Wight. She was leaving for New Zealand and the car was for sale - a pale blue Fiat Bertone popsy of ancient vintage, in good condition but a little frayed at the edges. This description could also be applied to me, so I was sure we were meant for each other.
Bringing Vagabond Shoes into existence as a self-published book has been a steep learning curve. After winning a prize for the MS and getting a grant for the costs I felt I had to go ahead. If you have had similar experiences with self publishing share them with others on this site.
So far Vagabond Shoes has been well received with comments such as ’absolutely riveting’, ’funny and very entertaining’ and ’highly enjoyable.’
