English literature's most beloved comedy of manners
Few have failed to be charmed by the witty and independent spirit of Elizabeth Bennet. Her early determination to dislike Mr. Darcy is a prejudice only matched by the folly of his arrogant pride.

'Pride and Prejudice has always been the most popular of Jane Austen's books … with its good humoured comedy, its sunny heroine, its dream denouement' (Claire Tomalin)
'These modern editions are to be strongly recommended for their scrupulous texts, informative notes and helpful introductions'.

    One of the best novels ever

    If you love good books you cannot miss this one. It's the perfect mix of wit, good plot, great characters and a story that is never old or boring. Definitely a must for everyone.

    i can't believe I bought this (even if it's so cheap), for I have read this many many times. The thing is, every time I pick it up, I can't put it down. I love this book!

  • Un viaggio nel secolo scorso vissuto nella quotidianità dell'autrice. Un classico da leggere assolutamente, anche per cultura personale. Bello davvero!
