Pride and Prejudice

Jane Austen is one of the few truly great writers who have managed to break into the hearts and minds of all readers, without exception. Among her many masterpieces, “Pride and Prejudice” is surely the most popular and beloved: the five daughters of the unforgettable Mrs. Bennet, all in search of suitable marital arrangements, provide an opportunity to draw a sparkling and profound picture of life in the English countryside of the late 18th century. The fates of Elizabeth, Jane, Mr. Bingley and the shadowy Mr. Darcy weave an irresistible ballet, a psychological dance that sheds light on the multifaceted impregnability of the human soul, especially when grappling with love or something that resembles love.
