Description
"With its 'light and bright and sparkling' dialogue, its romantic denouement and its lively heroine, 'Pride and Prejudice' is Jane Austen's most perennially popular novel. The love story of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, who misjudge, then challenge and change each other, is also a novel about the search for happiness and self-knowledge in a world of strict social rules, where a woman must marry well to survive."--taken from back cover.
