A beautiful, display-worthy collectors hardcover of one of the most beloved novels ever written, Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice. No novel in English has given more pleasure than Pride and Prejudice. Because it is one of the great works in our literature, critics in every generation reexamine and reinterpret it. But the rest of us simply fall in love with itand with its wonderfully charming and intelligent heroine, Elizabeth Bennet. Pride and Prejudice captivates us not only with its romantic suspense but also by the fascinations of the world we visit in the novels pages. The life of the English country gentry at the turn of the nineteenth century is made as real to us as our own, not only by Jane Austens wit and feeling but by her subtle observation of the way people behave in society and how we are true or treacherous to each other and ourselves. Jane Austen remains the most misunderstood of great English writers . . . Austens is an extended, exploratory, dangerously subversive art, and is neither harmlessly decorative nor picturesquely provincial . . . [Irony] is the secret of the perfect self-sufficiency of Pride and Prejudice.from the Introduction by Peter Conrad Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Everymans Library Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.
