Lit Spirits Book Club: Jane Austen Series, "Pride and Prejudice"โจ๏ธ
Details
The cooler weather is upon us, meaning more snuggled-in, early evenings - that beg for a cup of tea and a book in hand, cuddled into the corner of a cozy couch.๐ต๐๐โจ๏ธ
Jump into this journey where I get re-read some of my favorites, and others, for the first time. My goal is to read most, if not all, of the classic literature by one author at a time, moving from easiest to most challenging!
Plot Summary:
"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."
