Description

Few can resist the charm of Elizabeth Bennet’s wit and independence in Jane Austen’s timeless novel, *Pride and Prejudice*. When Elizabeth first meets the wealthy and eligible Fitzwilliam Darcy, she finds him proud and aloof, while he appears unimpressed by her intelligence and beauty. Her dislike deepens when she learns of his interference in the romance between his friend Charles Bingley and her beloved sister Jane. As the story unfolds in this brilliant comedy of manners, Austen masterfully explores the dangers of hasty judgments and vividly portrays the friendships, gossip, and social expectations of provincial middle-class life.

This Penguin Classics edition is based on Austen’s first edition and includes the original introduction by Tony Tanner, as well as a newly updated introduction and notes by Vivien Jones.
