✦ Synopsis

A truly compelling new character in the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction: "Sofia-Elisabete, the abandoned little girl, is impossible not to love..."The year is 1810 and a girl is born amidst a great upheaval in Lisbon as it prepares for Napoleon's Army to invade Portugal. Half-British, half-Portuguese-Galician, she is the natural daughter of a British Officer, he being Colonel Fitzwilliam (the cousin of Fitzwilliam Darcy), and a lindissima, she being a young beauty who worked at her father's caza de pasto or public house.In the first short story, A Journey to Albion, we meet this irrepressible little girl, Sofia-Elisabete, as she sails to England to search for her father. In the second short story, Chocolate Destiny, she describes the two most important people in her life, as only she can tell it.Richly detailed and written in a humorous voice using the vernacular of the Regency Era (1811-1820), these short stories are told through the eyes of an enchanting eleven-year-old girl reflecting on her humble beginnings and her new life in England.These short shorts of I, Sofia-Elisabete: Love Child of Colonel Fitzwilliam are a spin-off of the novel, Freedom & Mirth: Or, A Pride and Prejudice Serio-Comic Journey, written by the same author. The Freedom & Mirth stories are variations of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, but they each of them stand on their own.
