Notes on Adaptation: Death Comes to Pemberley

Death Comes to Pemberley - P.D. James

P.D. James took liberties with Jane Austen. The makers of the Masterpiece adaptation of "Death Comes to Pemberley," which aired recently on PBS, took liberties with James' novel. 

 

It's all good. Neither is atrocious; neither is canon. They are little homages that as a Janeite I can embrace or dismiss.
