Pride and Prejudice has delighted generations of readers with its unforgettable cast of characters, carefully choreographed plot, and a hugely entertaining view of the world and its absurdities. With the arrival of eligible young men in their neighbourhood, the lives of Mr and Mrs Bennet and their five daughters are turned inside out and upside down.

Jane Austen's classic romantic comedy is the sparkling tale of the Bennets, a family blessed with five daughters and a mother desperate to marry them off.

When Elizabeth Bennet first meets eligible bachelor Fitzwilliam Darcy, she thinks him arrogant and conceited; he is indifferent to her good looks and lively mind. When she later discovers that Darcy has involved himself in the troubled relationship between his friend Bingley and her beloved sister Jane, she is determined to dislike him more than ever. In the sparkling comedy of manners that follows, Jane Austen shows the folly of judging by first impressions and superbly evokes the friendships, gossip and snobberies of provincial middle-class life.

Some mistakes can be forgiven. Some hearts can be won twice. When Jane Bennet accepts Mr. Bingley's proposal, Elizabeth should be overjoyed. Instead, she's anxious—because Bingley's closest friend is returning to Netherfield, and Elizabeth has spent months regretting every harsh word she once said to Mr. Darcy. But Darcy isn't coming alone. His sister Georgiana has taken it upon herself to plan an engagement ball, and she seems remarkably determined to seek Elizabeth's advice on every detail. As the preparations bring them together again and again, Elizabeth begins to hope that not all is...
