In July the Hiawassee Book Club will discuss Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen.
Pride And Prejudice, the story of Mrs. Bennet's attempts to marry off her five daughters is one of the best-loved and most enduring classics in English literature. Excitement fizzes through the Bennet household at Longbourn in Hertfordshire when young, eligible Mr. Charles Bingley rents the fine house nearby. He may have sisters, but he also has male friends, and one of these -- the haughty, and even wealthier, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy -- irks the vivacious Elizabeth Bennet, the second of the Bennet girls. The romantic clash between the opinionated Elizabeth and Darcy plays out in a series of eighteenth-century drawing-room intrigues.
