Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice

This book was first published by Jane Austen in 1813. Its genre is romance novel, and the theme is pride and prejudice as you can see as the title of the book. This story has many characters, but the main character is Elizabeth Bennet who is the second of five daughters  in a family. there are also important characters such as Mr. Bringley who is a charming young man moves in to Netherfield Park in the neighborhood of the Bennet family, Mr. Darcy who is a friend of Bringley, doesn't talk a lot, has pride and selfish. And also Elizabeth's father's and mother's brothers and sisters concerned with the story. Long time ago, women were not allowed to work, and marriage was the only happiness for women. This story begins with Bringley's moving into Netherfield Park, and at a ball, Bringley met Elizabeth's elder sister Jane, and Darcy met Elizabeth. When Elizabeth met Darcy, both of them did not feel good for each other because there was prejudice. He proposed once, but she rejected because she thought he was the bad guy who bothered her sister's marriage, and his friend's future post. But as the time passed, and the misunderstanding is straightened out, Elizabeth realized how Darcy is a great man, and how stupid she was. But unfortunately, when she noticed the truth, Darcy's aunt came to visit Elizabeth and said she cannot get married to him. What is going to happen next!!! You, find the end.


When I started reading this book, I was confused because there were too many characters, and it was too far from our normal life. Characters have parties, and acting as if they are great people. From the story, prejudice controls our feeling for others, and sometimes it makes the relationship worse. I hope you can get the feeling I got from this book which is being yourself is good, and break the prejudice. i think you can enjoy this.
