Elizabeth Bennet non è il tipo di donna che si piega. Né agli uomini, né a un destino scritto da altri. Non immagina, però, che l'arrivo del ricco e insopportabile signor Darcy sia destinato a mettere in discussione ogni sua certezza. Scoprite il mondo interiore di Elizabeth, dove la ragione duella con il cuore nel tentativo di conciliare l'orgoglio dell'identità con la vulnerabilità del sentimento.

Elizabeth Bennet não tem a menor intenção de se submeter a homem nenhum ou, para ser franca, à vida nenhuma que não seja vivida inteiramente nos seus termos.

Mas, quando é apresentada ao rico e totalmente insuportável sr. Darcy, passa a questionar tudo que achava que sabia.
