It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austens
Pride and Prejudice is one of the best-loved novels of all time–and today, its more popular than ever. When the wealthy and very eligible bachelor Charles Bingley purchases an estate in the Bennets small town, he and the beautiful Jane immediately fall in love. But Bingleys arrogant friend Darcy just as quickly alienates Lizzy when she overhears him speaking dismissively of her. These first impressions have lasting repercussions for Jane, Elizabeth, and their whole family. Rich in wit and wisdom, humor and humanity,
Pride and Prejudice takes a probing, entertaining look at the nature of love, money, and power in Georgian England.
About the author
Pride and Prejudice, released in 1813, was Jane Austens second published novel. Her works were published anonymously during her lifetime, and she did not become the famous literary figure she is today until the late 1800s. Austens novels are filled with witty and satiric commentary on the social conventions of her time.
