Pride and Prejudice

Does pride prevent you from reading English books in adaptation? Are you prejudiced against abridgments? Then get acquainted with Jane Austen's masterpiece in the original! Pride and Prejudice is a novel of manners that tells the story of unequal love between an aristocrat and a girl from a family of a not-so-rich nobleman, who desperately needs to marry off his five daughters. This love story has found devoted fans for two centuries now. However, the soft humor of J. Austen, her unique authorial trait, plays no small part in this. Jane Austen is one of the first English female writers, both in significance and chronology. Her style is elegant and ironic. Although she grew up in the same world of class prejudices of the late 19th century as her characters, she easily rises above it. The portrait of this society, the satire of which begins literally from the first sentence of the novel, has been crafted by J. Austen carefully and with great love. The plot of the book is not so complicated, but this is more than compensated by her masterful command of style. The book is published in an unabridged version.
