Pride and Prejudice and its consequences have been a disaster for the literary conscience
>>

50 Shades of Mr Darcy
>>
>>25249141
Are there any other chuds like Darcy who actually gets the girl?
>>
>>25249141
This literally never happens in the book, not even in any of the adaptions. This looks like a rendition made by someone who is resentful for whatever reason.

You're telling me Mr. Darcy's 20-mile homoerotic radiation zone isn't in the book?! I would have never guessed...
>>
>>25249569
>A Fan Fiction
no way...
>>
>>25249569
It didn't happen but it should have.
>>
>>25249569
It's a joke about Jane Austen stereotypes that don't match her actual books.
>>
>>25249596
>auras and metaphorical radiation zones
Is there any books whose plots revolve around such things?
>>

Roadside Picnic.

Mr Darcy is one of the largest landholders i.e. wealthiest men in the realm. It's literally billionaire romance

darcy was just trump in a different era

>>25249667
It sounds more like modern Harlequin shit

Rich chuds? Yes, lots. In fiction and real life.

>heroine vows to marry for love, not money
>marries for love and gets money anyway
This is the essence of all chick-lit: whoring with a clear conscience.
>>
>>25249850
They'd rather have a poor Darcy than that beta rich guy in it
>>
>>25249850
Not really contradicting herself. In fact, she still refused him well after learning he was rich. The only reason they got together, as Nabokov pointed out, is that because she coincidentally had family near his place. Otherwise, they would've never seen each other again.

>>25249894
But Darcy happens to be rich. Lucky Lizzie, eh?
>>25250353
Uh, you realise this was just a plot point contrived by the author, right?
