About
No novel in English has given more pleasure than Pride and Prejudice. Because it is one of the great works in our literature, critics in every generation re-examine and reinterpret it. But the rest of us simply fall in love with it - and with its wonderfully harming and intelligent heroine, Elizabeth Bennet.
We are captivated not only by the novel's romantic suspense but also by the fascinations of the world we visit in its pages. The life of the English country gentry at the turn of the nineteenth century is made as real to us as our own, not only by Jane Austen's wit and feeling but by her subtle observations of the way people behave in society and how we are true or treacherous to one another and ourselves.
