ABOUT THE BOOK AND AUTHOR

Pride and Prejudice was written by English novelist Jane Austen (1775-1817) and was first published in 1813. It is one of the most popular novels in English literature.

Opening with the line "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife", Pride and Prejudice focuses on the five daughters in the Bennet family (Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty and Lydia) and their mother's belief that they should marry a man of financial means rather than a man they loved.

Jane Austen was the author of six well known novels including Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), Emma (1815), Northanger Abbey (1818) and Persuasion (1818). She also wrote Lady Susan (1871) and Love and Freindship and other Early Works (1790).

Biographies about Jane Austen written by her family members include A Memoir of Jane Austen (1871) and Jane Austen, Her Life and Letters: A Family Record (1913). Many of her letters are included in a compilation in The Letters of Jane Austen (1892).

About the Author

Jane Austen (1775–1817) was an English author known primarily for her six major novels set among the British landed gentry at the end of the 18th century. Considered defining works of the Regency Era and counted among the best–loved classics of English literature, Austen's books include Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion. The latter two were published after her death. "I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library." – Jane Austen
