Description
« Beginning with the famous line, ‘It is a universally acknowledged truth that a single man of substantial wealth is undoubtedly seeking a wife,’ Jane Austen initiates her witty and beloved novel, Pride and Prejudice. This cherished piece delves into the refined clashes between the proud Mr. Darcy and the prejudiced Elizabeth Bennet as they navigate their spirited courtship amid the intricacies of eighteenth-century drawing-room society. Noted literary critic George Saintsbury hailed it in 1894 as ‘the most perfect, characteristic, and quintessential work’ of its author, while Eudora Welty, in the twentieth century, lauded it as ‘irresistible and nearly flawless, approaching the pinnacle of fictional achievement.' »
