Pride And Prejudice

By (author) Austen, Jane
Short description/annotation:
The beloved novel of manners about the romance between Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, now freshly repackaged for the Union Square & Co. Signature Clothbound Classics line.
Description:
A novel of manners about the romantic pas de deux between Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, two perfectly suited lovers who, at first, find each other insufferable. Despite Elizabeth’s negative feelings about Darcy, fate seems determined to throw this pair together, and Darcy, almost in spite of himself, will make revelations that end up causing Elizabeth to question everything she believes. Set in a time when marrying well was a woman’s only way to secure a comfortable future, Pride and Prejudice is arguably the forerunner of all romantic comedies and certainly one of the best-loved novels of all time.
Biographical note:
Jane Austen (1775–1817) wrote six novels, all comedies of manners and masterpieces of wit, whose style forged the template of Regency and romance fiction.
