註釋The pride of high-ranking Mr Darcy, and the prejudice of middle-class Elizabeth Bennet, conduct an absorbing dance through the rigid social hierarchies of early nineteenth-century England, with the passion of the two unlikely lovers growing as their union seems ever more improbable.
With a host of Bennet sisters playing out their own triumphs and disasters, and the unforgettable tragi-comedy of their parents' marriage demonstrating just how high the stakes can be, Jane Austen's second novel has a lasting effect on the mind of everyone who reads it.
'This is the flowering of the English novel. It is witty and wise; there is not a single flaw in this book, or a single moment that you do not relish.' - Colm Toibin
'I read all of Jane Austen's novels very early on and learnt to love her economy of style and precision. She still seems to me the finest writer in the English language. Pride and Prejudice always bears another reading, and I think in many ways it is a perfect rendition of the novel form.' - Philippa Gregory
'Jane Austen is one of my favourite writers.very acute, very perceptive, and writing in close and honest detail about the tiny preoccupations of women's lives-preoccupations which speak of much larger social and human issues.' - Helen Fielding
