The entire tone of the story is Farce (capital F!)
Canon traits are exaggerated to peak tackiness; for example, Mr. Bennet’s benign selfish neglect is turned into sadistic mockery, cruel manipulation, and perverse toying with his wife & daughters, he has no love for any of his daughters, including Lizzy.
Mrs. Bennet, Caroline, & Lydia are delusional monsters of mean understanding.
Lizzy is a total Mary Sue.

Now Lydia ia being punished by forced work, humiliation, and physical pain in some strict boarding school for unruly girls…
Not only is the storytelling very poor, but the misogyny reeks !!!
Why do some authors crave this petty revenge and to inflict sadistic torture over Austen’s characters ????
