"Read in English"Read in English

“Pride and Prejudice” is the best known novel of the famous British writer Jane Austen (1775—1817). Amorous hearts every now and then easily get over social barriers but sometimes they fail skirting the walls of their own pride, natural misapprehensions or even prejudice. 21-year-old Jane Austen succeeded in revealing so masterly aspirations and disappointments, anxieties and feelings of enamoured Elizabeth and Mr Darcy that even today millions of readers of different generations admirably read her novel. It is notable for its touching romantic mood, light humour, psychologically exact portraits of its characters.

Pride and Prejudice (BBC Radio Drama)Pride and Prejudice (BBC Radio Drama)Since its immediate success in 1813, Pride and Prejudice has remained one of the most popular novels in the English language. Jane Austen called this brilliant work "her own darling child" and its vivacious heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, "as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print." The romantic clash between the opinionated Elizabeth and her proud beau, Mr. Darcy, is a splendid performance of civilized sparring. And Jane Austen's radiant wit sparkles as her characters dance a delicate quadrille of flirtation and intrigue, making this book the most superb comedy of manners of Regency England.
