Linda Berdoll is a self-described "Texas farm wife" whose interest in all things Austen was piqued by the BBC/A and E mini-series of Pride and Prejudice. Four years and much research later, her effort, Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife (originally titled The Bar Sinister) appeared, to the acclaim of readers and the horror of Jane Austen purists. This is Berdoll's first novel, but she has since published a humorous book of euphemisms and is now at work on the sequel to the sequel. She and her husband live on a pecan farm in Del Valle, Texas. Although she admits that she eloped in a manner similar to Lydia Bennet's, to her great fortune it was with Darcy, not Wickham.Linda Berdoll is the author of 'Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife: Pride and Prejudice Continues', published 2004 under ISBN 9781402202735 and ISBN 1402202733.
