Come sposare un milionario

Transposing Austen’s characters into contemporary Boston adds humor and relevance, but I wonder how much of the original tone was preserved or transformed.

Some characters felt larger-than-life, which made me laugh but also question how relatable they are. Was that a deliberate choice to amplify the satire?

The blend of classic and contemporary themes feels fresh, and I’m curious whether the author had a specific message or idea in mind when choosing this approach.
