<p>THE GREATEST ROMANCE NOVEL OF ALL TIME!</p> <p>A SPLENDID MUST-READ MASTERPIECE.</p> <p>Since its immediate success in 1813, Pride and Prejudice has remained one of the most popular novels in the English language.</p> <p>Jane Austen called this brilliant work "her own darling child" and its vivacious heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, "as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print." The romantic clash between the opinionated Elizabeth and her proud beau, Mr. Darcy, is a splendid performance of civilized sparring. And Jane Austen's radiant wit sparkles as her characters dance a delicate quadrille of flirtation and intrigue, making this book the most superb comedy of manners of Regency England.<br> <br> Among the writers who have approached nearest to the manner of the great master, we have no hesitation in placing Jane Austen. --Thomas Macaulay</p> <p><br> 'Pride and Prejudice' is the best novel in the language. --Anthony Trollope</p> <p><br> I used to think that men did everything better than women, but that was before I read Jane Austen. I don't think any man ever wrote better than Jane Austen. --Rex Stout</p> <p><br> Elizabeth Bennet has but to speak, and I am at her knees. --Robert Louis Stevenson</p> <p><br> Read again, and for the third time at least, Miss Austen's very finely written novel of 'Pride and Prejudice.' That young lady has a talent for describing the involvements and feelings and characters of ordinary life which is to me the most wonderful I ever met with. --Sir Walter Scott</p>
