Publisher's Synopsis
Since its rapid fame in 1813, Pride and Prejudice have stayed one of the most famous books in the English language. Jane Austen referred to this splendid work as "her own darling child" and its enthusiastic and courageous woman, Elizabeth Bennet, "as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print." The heartfelt conflict between the perceptive Elizabeth and her beloved lover, Mr. Darcy, is an amazing presentation of acculturated striking. What's more, Jane Austen's brilliant mind shines as her characters dance a sensitive quadrille of tease and interest, making this book the most wonderful satire of the habits of Regency England.
