En savoir plus sur le livre

Austen's most popular novel tells the unforgettable story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read. This novel of manners, first published in 1813, explores Elizabeth's navigation of issues like upbringing, morality, education, and marriage within the British Regency's landed gentry. As the second of five daughters of a country gentleman near Meryton, Elizabeth's life changes when wealthy Mr. Bingley and his friend Mr. Darcy move into the neighborhood. While Bingley is immediately drawn to Elizabeth's elder sister, Jane, Darcy struggles to fit in and clashes with Elizabeth. Set in early 19th-century England, the story's themes resonate with modern readers, keeping it near the top of "most loved books" lists. With over 20 million copies sold, it stands as one of the most popular novels in English literature and garners significant attention from scholars. The enduring appeal has inspired numerous adaptations and works that echo Austen's memorable characters and themes. A true classic that deserves a place on every bookshelf!
