Dorothea Brooke is an ardent idealist who represses her vivacity and intelligence for the cold, theological pedant Casaubon. One man understands her true nature: the artist Will Ladislaw. But how can love triumph against her sense of duty and Casaubon’s mean spirit? Meanwhile, in the little world of Middlemarch, the broader world is mirrored: the world of politics, social change, and reforms, as well as betrayal, greed, blackmail, ambition, and disappointment.

These three short works show Austen experimenting with a variety of different literary styles, from melodrama to satire, and exploring a range of social classes and settings. The early epistolary novel Lady Susan depicts an unscrupulous coquette toying with the affections of several men. In contrast, The Watsons is a delightful fragment whose spirited heroine, Emma Watson, finds her marriage opportunities limited by poverty and pride....

Story
The intensely personal David Copperfield (widely regarded to be the most autobiographical of the author’s novels) is one of Dickens’ greatest works. We follow David Copperfield from birth and miserable childhood to inevitable tragedies, until he finally finds happiness later in life. Full of some of the most memorable characters in literary history. Nicholas Boulton’s depiction of the oily Uriah Heep and David Copperfield’s sinister stepfather, Murdstone, do the novel full justice.

Story
At 27, Anne Elliot is no longer young and has few romantic prospects. Eight years earlier, she had been persuaded by her friend Lady Russell to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a handsome naval captain with neither fortune nor rank. What happens when they encounter each other again is movingly told in Jane Austen's last completed novel. Set in the fashionable societies of Lyme Regis and Bath, Persuasion is a brilliant satire of vanity and pretension, but, above all, it is a love story tinged with the heartache of missed opportunities.

Publisher's Summary
One of Jane Austen’s most beloved works, Pride and Prejudice, is vividly brought to life by Academy Award nominee Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl). In her bright and energetic performance of this British classic, she expertly captures Austen’s signature wit and tone. Her attention to detail, her literary background, and her performance in the 2005 feature film version of the novel provide the perfect foundation from which to convey the story of Elizabeth Bennet, her four sisters, and the inimitable Mr. Darcy.
In Pride and Prejudice, the Bennet sisters try to find their way in the repressive strictures of 19th-century society. Austen shows the folly of judging by first impressions and the experience of falling in love, and she superbly describes a world which, despite being more than two centuries old, still resonates with modern concerns.
Critic Reviews
"British actress Rosamund Pike is the perfect choice to narrate this novel of manners, and listening to her voice each of the iconic characters is great fun.... Austen's many devotees will savor this first-rate version of her charming novel." ( AudioFile)

annoyingly brilliant
Having as little affection for high society as I do, I was always reticent to read this book. I find that I now detest myself for enjoying it so much and I believe I judged it unfairly. The tête-à-tête between the two main characters was enthralling and laced with double meaning. On a more simplistic note I learned about half a dozen new words. Jane Austen's critique of high society and its trappings was piercing and I should have given her more credit.
in addition, Rosamund Pike's narration was exceptional.

Fun story enhanced by Narrator!
Would you consider the audio edition of Pride and Prejudice to be better than the print version?
We had a long (10 hour) car drive, and the audio book was a perfect way for my daughter to complete her prescribed school book on the way (she gets car-sick reading). I love the story too, and we enjoyed listening together!
What about Rosamund Pike’s performance did you like?
We found both the speed of Rosamund Pike's narration and her character voices just right. I think any slower would have made the language too laborious for us.
Any additional comments?
I have found that audio books are a great way for teenagers to tackle the classics that are often set for school. The language can sometimes be cumbersome for them to read, but the audio format is more accessible, and they can go back to the text more easily once they have heard the book. Highly recommend it - we're doing The Great Gatsby next!

I thoroughly enjoyed Rosamund's reading of this story and through this audiobook, Pride and Prejudice has become my most beloved story! Rosamund did such a fantastic job that I really, really wish that she would read aloud more of Jane Austen's works in the very near future!

Would you listen to Pride and Prejudice again? Why?
It is a classic story and I think that every time I read or listen to it there is something more I get out of it
What was one of the most memorable moments of Pride and Prejudice?
As much as it is not enjoyable for Lizzie, I do love to hear about the shenanigans of her family at the Netherfield ball or in town.
Which character – as performed by Rosamund Pike – was your favourite?
Jane - I couldnt help but imagine her from the movie also
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
It was her captivating eyes!

Most memorable moment was when darcy expressed his feelings. My heart was pouncing the whole time. No sexual desires, no motives, no plotting just a very innocent romance based solemly on Darcy and Elizabeth's pure feelings. Loved it😍😊
