Left: Lizzie Bennet in her olive-green utility jacket, white tee and blue jeans, arms loosely crossed with a wry half-smile. Right: Fitzwilliam Darcy, tall in a charcoal-grey overcoat over a black sweater, hands in his coat pockets, cool and reserved. They stand back-to-back with a gap between them, each facing the viewer. Caption: 'THE CAST — SO FAR'

About this chapter
A bonus cast-guide interlude: a clean character-card lineup of everyone in Lizzie Bennet's tangled orbit as of the Ms. de Bourgh estate visit. One portrait per principal with their name and their essence in a single caption — Lizzie the sharp, unbowed protagonist; Darcy the cold man slowly thawing; Jane and Charles, the right people with the wrong timing; George Wickham, warm smile and cold read; Caroline Bingley, insults gift-wrapped; Charlotte Lucas, who chose a roof over butterflies; Mr. Collins, who treats courtship like a sales pitch; the newly arrived Ms. de Bourgh on her throne; and the whole Bennet household — five daughters and one mission. A quick who's-who for new readers and a midpoint snapshot of the whole board before the story turns.
