Many consider this rich social commentary to be Jane Austen's finest novel. It is certainly among her more famous ones. Austen sets her entertaining study of manners and misconceptions against the backdrop of a class-conscious society in 18th century England.

Spirited, intelligent Elizabeth Bennett is alternately enchanted and affronted by Mr. Darcy. She is quick to suspend her usual, more rational judgment when it comes to him. She also is quick to believe the worst gossip about this haughty, opinionated man who soon manages to alienate Elizabeth and her family. But is the condescending air that Mr. Darcy wears an indication of his real character? Or has Elizabeth's pride gotten in the way of her chance for true romance?

Editorial reviews

Pride and Prejudice is an acclaimed work of literature, and one of Austen's most beloved novels. The story examines the manners of 19th-century British society by exposing the fortunes and misfortunes of the Bennett family. The family's main concern is marriage; Mrs. Bennett wishes to secure favorable unions for her five daughters. The story revolves around Elizabeth Bennett, whose pride prevents her from following her heart.

Flo Gibson's voice is enchanting and warm, making the listening experience indisputably pleasant. Gibson's British accent adds character to the performance, rendering it unforgettable.

Would you listen to Pride and Prejudice again? Why?

Yes, of course. I've read it twice, and listened to it twice now. Flo Gibson, though is my favorite reader of Austen's works. I love her voice.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Pride and Prejudice?

I love when Lizzy rejects Mr. Collins and he just doesn't get it. It's awkward in the book, as it is in the movie (Keira Knightley version).

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It's a bit long for just one sit through, but a couple to a few days is great. I love Jane Austen's books. Period romances/dramas are one of my favorite genres.

Love Flo Gibson!

Any additional comments?

The narrator read a little too fast for my comprehension. I would be looking for a slightly slower narrator.
