Listen to audio presented by Literary Affairs: Pride and Prejudice.View our feature on Jane Austen. Few have failed to be charmed by the witty and independent spirit of Elizabeth Bennet. Her early determination to dislike Mr. Darcy is a prejudice only matched by the folly of his arrogant pride. Their first impressions give way to true feelings in a comedy profoundly concerned with happiness and how it might be achieved. @FirstThoughtBestThought Usually a man wills his home to his wife or kids. But sometimes, he wills it to a distant relative, so when he dies, you’re out on your ass. And then, and THEN, that distant, meddlesome priest of a relative tries to seduce one of your sisters.

Jane is such a good name. I would like anybody named Jane. From Twitterature: The World"s Greatest Books in Twenty Tweets or Less
