Publisher's Synopsis
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." Jane Austen's classic masterpiece delves into the intricacies of 1800s British mating rituals and the folly of judging by first impressions. When an eligible bachelor shows up in a small country village, a mother sees an opportunity to marry off one of her five daughters. What follows is a delightful, well-written, romantic comedy of friendship, gossip and snobbery.
