Description

Since its immediate success in 1813. Pride
and Prejudice has remained one of the
most popular novels in the English
language. Jane Austen called this brilliant
work “her own daring child” and its
vivacious heroine, Elizabeth Benner, “as
delightful a creature as ever appeared in
print.” The romantic clash between the
opinionated Elizabeth and her proud
beau. Mr. Darcy, is a splendid perfor-
mance of civilized sparring. And Jane
Austen’s radiant wit sparkles as her
characters dance a delicate quadrille of
flirtation and intrigue, making this book
the most superb comedy of manners of
Regency England.
