Pride and Prejudice has long been Britain's favorite novel, and though first published over 200 years ago, has stood the test of time. Its bright sparkling dialogue and sharply drawn characters continue to delight reader young and old. The romance between Elizabeth and Darcy has been imitated countless times in other novels, but has never been equalled.

The Bennet family is in a bit of a jam. With five daughters and no sons, their property is entailed away from their line, and all the women will be largely penniless when their father dies. And so the best way to ensure the most comfortable livelihood for all is for at least one of the five girls to marry “well”, which has their mother’s sharp eye ever seeking a single man in possession of a good fortune. But the Bennet sisters aren’t wholly on board with marrying anyone flung at them.

La vida de los Bennet transcurre con relativa calma en la gran casa de Netherfield Park, hasta que esta se ve interrumpida por la llegada de dos apuestos y adinerados jóvenes ingleses, Bingley y Darcy. Los deseos de la señora Bennet por casar a alguna de sus cinco hijas se disparan. El orgullo y la distancia social, la astucia y la hipocresía, los malentendidos y los juicios apresurados llevan a sus personajes al escándalo y al dolor, pero también a la comprensión, el conocimiento y el amor verdadero.

The one thing Mrs. Bennett most dearly wants is to see her five daughters settled. When wealthy bachelor Mr. Bingley moves in to nearby Netherfield Hall and takes an interest in her eldest daughter, Jane, her dream is almost within her grasp. Yet, problems arise when Bingley's friend, the prideful Mr. Darcy, meddles in their relationship, earning him the disdain of Jane's sister, Elizabeth. However, Mr. Darcy can't help finding a match in the intelligent, free-spirited Lizzy Bennett, despite her country manners.
