About this book
Wit, pride and slow-burning love
In Regency England, the spirited Elizabeth Bennet navigates society, family, and the proud Mr. Darcy — Austen's enduring comedy of manners about love, class, and self-knowledge.
“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.”Pride and Prejudice
Austen’s irony lives in the gap between what characters say and what they mean — wonderful practice for reading implication and tone in English. The chapters are short and the dialogue sparkling.
