The most famous of Jane Austen's novels, Pride and Prejudice has become one of the most popular novels in English literature, and it remains a source of fascination for modern readers; regularly ranking near the top of lists of "most loved books", no surprise for a book tackling issues from manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage. The novel centres on Elizabeth Bennet, the second of the five daughters of a landed country gentleman. Elizabeth's father, Mr. Bennet, is a bookish man and somewhat neglectful of his responsibilities. In contrast Elizabeth's mother, the empty headed Mrs. Bennet, a woman who lacks social graces, is primarily concerned with finding suitable husbands for her five daughters, who will inherit little or nothing from their father.

Pride and Prejudice is a classic story of manners and marriage at the turn of the 19th century. Mrs Bennet is consumed with matching each of her five daughters to suitable gentlemen, particularly to the wealthy and highly eligible Mr Bingley. However, the path towards matrimony proves to be by no means straightforward ......Although suitable for every reader, this larger format edition of Jane Austen's satirical novel is particularly well-suited to pupils studying Pride and Prejudice as part of their GCSE in English Literature. Here, the larger font size not only makes reading a lengthy text more comfortable, the wider margins provide valuable extra space for students (and teachers) to add their own explanatory notes and points for comparison, discussion or further thought.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife"So begins Pride and Prejudice, Austen's masterwork of a novel, in equal parts love story, social commentary and comedy of manners. There have been few books in the history of literature that have been taken more to heart by the British people, enchanted as they are by the twists and turns of Regency England. The story of Elizabeth Bennet and her slow discovery of love cannot fail to win over audiences, as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry at the dawn of the nineteenth century. With a cast of now iconic characters, such as Darcy, Bingley and Wickham, allow yourself to be transported into the world of Longbourn.
