Alternate cover edition of ISBN 9780679783268

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 darling child" and its vivacious heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, "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 performance 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.

  • From Twitter
I started and never finished Pride and Prejudice a fair few times in my 20s and 30s (found it totally boring!!), but tried again on recommendation from a good friend in my 40s, and loved it. I still can't finish Dracula though (bloody terrifying) and don't think I ever will!
