Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice. The moment I first met you, I noticed your pride, your sense of superiority, and your selfish disdain for the feeling of others. You are the last man in the world whom I could ever be persuaded to marry, said Elizabeth Bennet. And so Elizabeth rejects the proud Mr. Darcy. Can nothing overcome her prejudice against him? And what of the other Bennet girls- their fortunes, and misfortunes, in the business or getting husbands? This book was written by Jane Austen. She lived from 1775 to 1817. Her novel are highly prized not only for their light irony, humor and depiction of contemporary English country life, but also for their underlying serious qualities. About this book, first it was published in 1813. This book has consistently been her most popular novel. It is also published as a movie. This story is about end of the 18th century.
