Book Description
This edition of "Pride and Prejudice (Unabridged with the original watercolor illustrations by C.E. Brock)" has been carefully formatted for your ebook reader with a functional table of contents. Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London. Though the story is set at the turn of the 19th century, it retains a fascination for modern readers, continuing near the top of lists of 'most loved books' such as The Big Read. It has become one of the most popular novels in English literature and receives considerable attention from literary scholars. Modern interest in the book has resulted in a number of dramatic adaptations and an abundance of novels and stories imitating Austen's memorable characters or themes. To date, the book has sold some 20 million copies worldwide. As Anna Quindlen wrote, "Pride and Prejudice is also about that thing that all great novels consider, the search for self. And it is the first great novel to teach us that that search is as surely undertaken in the drawing room making small talk as in the pursuit of a great white whale or the public punishment of adultery." Jane Austen (1775 – 1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism and biting social commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics.

Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
In Jane Austen's iconic novel, 'Pride and Prejudice' (Unabridged with the original watercolor illustrations by C.E. Brock), readers are transported to the refined world of Regency-era England where social conventions and class distinctions reign supreme. Through the skillful use of wit, irony, and social commentary, Austen paints a vivid portrait of the societal expectations and romantic entanglements of the time. The novel's engaging plot and complex characters provide a nuanced exploration of themes such as love, marriage, and personal growth, making it a timeless classic in English literature. Jane Austen, a keen observer of the society she lived in, drew inspiration from her own experiences and surroundings to craft 'Pride and Prejudice'. Her sharp critique of the rigid social structure and the limitations placed on women during the period adds depth and authenticity to the narrative, cementing her reputation as a master of the novel of manners. I highly recommend 'Pride and Prejudice' to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that delves into the intricacies of human relationships and societal norms. Austen's insightful commentary and engaging storytelling make this novel a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of love and society.
