Pride And Prejudice 5

Pride and Prejudice, which opens with one of the most famous sentences in English Literature, is an ironic novel of manners. In it, the garrulous and empty-headed Mrs. Bennet has only one aim - that of finding a good match for each of her five daughters. In this, she is mocked by her cynical and indolent husband. With its wit, social precision, and, above all, its irresistible heroine, Pride and Prejudice has proven to be one of the most enduringly popular novels in the English language.
