Elizabeth Bennet is the second of five daughters of an English country gentleman. Unused to social situations and the graces of the gentry, Elizabeth attends a ball where she meets Fitzwilliam Darcy, a man who acts condescending towards her and towards the ball in general. Eventually, chance puts her in Darcy's path several times, and she discovers that Mr. Darcy isn't all that bad after all.

Author Info

JANE AUSTEN was born on December 16, 1775, the seventh of eight children-six boys and two girls. Jane Austen began to write stories and sketches for her family at the age of 12. By 1795 she had written a comic History of the World; an unfinished novel, Catherine; and two epistolary novels, Lady Susan and Elinor and Marianne which she was later to rewrite as Sense and Sensibility. In 1807 she and her sister and mother moved to Southampton, a large seaport, and in 1809 back to Hampshire to the village of Chawton. It was at Chawton Cottage that she wrote most of her completed novels. In November 1811 her first published novel, Sense and Sensibility, appeared and was very successful. Pride and Prejudice was published in January 1813, Mansfield Park in May 1814 and Emma very early in 1816. She died in 1817,aged only 42.

A great piece of work

The book will never fail to leave a long standing impression in your mind and is a great gift to us. Such a beautifully written classic and romantic piece of work.
It might be difficult initially to get along but later on, you will never be able to put it down until you reach the last page.

Review as a literature Student

This is part of my syllabus and I've been searching for this book at low price from really long. Its Unabridged version which reduces chances of missing Jane Austen's super classy and romantic dialogue and even maintains my interest of entertainment. I saw previous comments regarding the font size. I've read other editions of the same novel costing 400bucks but with really small fonts but this is so apt. It has got perfect readable font size. Apart from that it has synopsis of the work and br...

Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice

I once borrowed this book from a friend and read it. But then I thought I must have this in my collection. So I ordered here. And now I have read the book twice. Jane Austen's novels are simple yet there lies surprising and thrilling moments. She has highlighted every character with nitty-gritty. I would recommend this book to everyone who are willing to know the 19th century generation because it is a classic book. And I'm happy with the flipkart delivery. No muss,no fuss.

Received in good condition

The book was received in good condition.
However, it was a day late.
Also, no cute flipkart bookmark was inside.
Although, if you are buying the book, buy a better version, as this is a classic one should have at home and the product provided by Flipkart is in great condition but the book inside is what you would expect of a book for such less a price.

Full of unforgettable characters!

Though it might be hard to believe when you read it in today's age...this book was one of the early kinds of feminist literature that was written in England. Essentially, it is a love story but is definitely a satirical one. In bits autobiographical and very "English", this is a book that everybody should read at least once in their lifetime.
If you are new to classic literature, this would be the best book to begin a new kind of reading with :)
