Jane Austen’s most popular novel, the unforgettable story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy. Now in large print.Mrs Bennet has five daughters to marry. Not easy when they have a small dowry, and suitors are scarce. But a new young gentleman has just arrived at Netherfield Park, the neighbouring estate, and the good manners of the English gentry of the Regency era quickly arrange a ball to meet him.Mr Bingley soon becomes involved with the eldest daughter, Jane, and there is almost talk of marriage. The same cannot be said of his youngest daughter, Elizabeth, who for her part has met the man who is certainly the proudest in the county in the person of Mr. Darcy, a friend of Mr. Bingley’s, with whom she has an icy, barely polite relationship. This rather obnoxious and haughty character, however, takes a great interest in this sassy, witty and independent young woman.In Jane Austen’s comedy of manners, intellectual and class prejudices, personal pride and family pride fall victim to these encounters, making this novel Jane Austen’s most famous work, known for her caustic wit and keen observations.
