Sinossi
Longbourn, Hertfordshire, fine Settecento. La signora Bennett è in cerca di un buon matrimonio per le sue cinque figlie. La maggiore, Jane, bella e sensibile, si innamora del gentile (e ricco) Bingley, che la ricambia, ma che poi all'improvviso torna a Londra troncando ogni rapporto. La secondogenita, Elizabeth, intelligente e spiritosa, pensa che forse nella rottura c'entri il misterioso Fitzwilliam Darcy, un aristocratico burbero ma affascinante, amico di Bingley, il cui arrivo ha sconvolto la società locale mandando tutti in fibrillazione. D'altronde l'unica a non lasciarsi ammaliare da lui sembra essere proprio Elizabeth, che non vuole passare la vita tra un ballo, un tè e pettegolezzi insignificanti. Lei sogna l'amore... Capolavoro di Jane Austen, Orgoglio e pregiudizio è uno dei romanzi più letti e imitati di sempre, irresistibile ritratto della società inglese all'alba del Romanticismo, dove l'ironia e la raffinata critica sociale si mescolano a una storia d'amore indimenticabile. Età di lettura: da 13 anni.

I am so unqualified to write about this book.

"Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen started off annoying me and ended up enchanting me. Up until about page one hundred I found this book vexing, frivolous and down right tedious. I now count myself as a convert to the Austen cult. I must confess I have been known to express an antipathy for anythi Leggi tutto
Where my massive crush on Jane Austen began: alone, on a hot day in Montana, cursing her name. I had to read it for AP English and I could not see the point. Girls need to marry. Girls can't get married. Girls are sad. Girls get married. Girls are happy. I went to school to half heartedly discuss it a Leggi tutto
