First published in 1813, this Austen's best known work. Elizabeth, the
scintillating heroine and Austen's favorite character, attempts to arrange
her own life and relations amid the scandalous behavior of her family. With
brilliant irony, this novel arrays social prejudices and pretenses, against the
obscured political turmoil of the Napoleonic wars.
"The romantic clash of two opinionated young people sets the stage for
Austen's hilarious and classic novel of matrimonial rites and rivalries.
Spirited Elizabeth Bennet is one of a family of five daughters; with no male
heir, the Bennet estate must someday pass the priggish cousin Collins.
Therefore, the girls must marry well--and the arrogant bachelor Mr. Darcy
is Elizabeth's elusive match. Readers will immediately understand why
Austen herself call the book her "darling child"."
