“Pride and Prejudice” is the best known novel of the famous British writer Jane Austen (1775 – 1817).
Amorous hearts every now and then easily get over social barriers but sometimes they fail skirting the walls of their own pride, natural misapprehensions or even prejudice.
21-year-old Jane Austen succeeded in revealing so masterly aspirations and disappointments, anxieties and feelings of enamoured Elizabeth and Mr Darcy that even today millions of readers of different generations admirably read her novel.
It is notable for its touching romantic mood, light humour, psychologically exact portraits of its characters.
If it were not for this book, there would be possibly neither “psychological” nor “chick-lit” novels, nor even feminist literature in general.
