Pride and Prejudice with a twist

Get ready for Pride and Prejudice with brisket! Lizzy Bennet's an Anglo-Jew with a Jewish mother, some Jewish attitude, and lots to say about Mr. Darcy, who has some serious attitude problems of his own when it comes to “Hebrews.” When these two proud people meet, is it still love at first...slight? Will prejudice keep them from bridging the gap between Jew and Gentile? Austen's beloved novel gains new layers of comedy and drama in this ingenious mash-up.

"Hilarious and charming, genuinely delightful. An audacious reinterpretation of the divine Miss A which has one laughing out loud from the first page."
—Lauren Henderson, author of The Jane Austen Dating Book

"Lev Raphael’s version of Pride and Prejudice develops a whole new dimension and Austen's plot neatly accommodates the Jewish elements in this mash-up hand-made by a maven."
—Rachel Brownstein, author of Why Jane Austen?

"With a sly wit and deft hand, Raphael infiltrates the world of Austen's most popular novel and plays a game of What If? that simultaneously creates something fresh and reveals anew the genius of the original prose. Never have the human foibles of pride and prejudice been exposed in such a delightful way."
—Michael Thomas Ford, author of Jane Bites Back

Looks like P D James has written a Pride and Prjudice murder mystery. Reviews are so-so. One Janeite said he found 3 mistakes, one of which is that she call Mr. Collins Mr Bennet's nephew. That was he British edition, hope they fixed it for the US edition.
It is a murder mystery, but it doesn't sound 'different' from any of the others I've read.
Definitely not 'rushing' out to buy it.

This really is a curiosity, but one I'm not at all curious about. I read her 'Detective', a non-fiction summary of all things detective that was 99.9% British. I didn't keep it.
