Blurb
'No sooner had he made it clear to himself and his friends that she had hardly a good feature in her face, than he began to find it was rendered uncommonly intelligent by the beautiful expression of her dark eyes...'
When Elizabeth Bennet first meets Fitzwilliam Darcy, she thinks him arrogant and conceited; he in turn is indifferent to her wit and lively mind.
But the Bennet daughters are in need of financial security in the shape of husbands, and when Darcy's friend, the affable Mr Bingley, forms an attachment to Elizabeth's beloved sister Jane, Darcy becomes increasingly hard to avoid.
In this sparkling comedy of manners, Jane Austen shows the folly of judging by first impressions as she tells an irresistible, timeless story of love, marriage and human nature.
Biography
Born in 1775, Jane Austen published her many novels anonymously. Her work was not widely read until the late nineteenth century, and her fame only continued to grow from there. Known for her wit and sharp insight into social conventions, her novels about love, relationships, and society grow more popular year after year. She has earned her place in history as one of the most cherished writers in English literature.
