A standout among the most adored and appreciated English books, Pride and Prejudice was written as a mainstream diversion. At the same time, the aesthetic power of Jane Austen (1775-1817) changed this story of country sentiment into a witty parody of English provincial life that is currently viewed as one of the essential novels of the 19th century. In a remote Hertfordshire town, distant from the great city streets of George III's England, a country squire of humble stature must offer his five young girls in marriage. At the center of this difficult undertaking are his obstinate second daughter Elizabeth Bennet and her refined suitor Fitzwilliam Darcy - both of whose pride must be humbled and prejudices broken before the novel can arrive at its amazing finish. This large print edition of Jane Austen's classic masterpiece is printed on high quality paper with a beautiful, durable cover.
