En savoir plus sur le livre
The romantic clash of two opinionated young people provides the sustaining theme of Jane Austen's 1813 masterwork Pride and Prejudice. Spirited Elizabeth Bennet is one of a family of five daughters; with no male heir; the Bennet estate must someday pass to their priggish cousin Collins. Therefore, the girls must marry well--and the arrogant bachelor Mr. Darcy is Elizabeth's elusive match. An entertaining portrait of matrimonial rites and rivalries, Pride and Prejudice is timeless in its hilarity and its honesty; readers will immediately understand why Austen herself called the book "my own darling child." Margaret Drabble writes in her incisive introduction: "The elegance of this performance is almost beyond praise." --back cover
