The cult novel by Jane Austen has been repeatedly filmed and is included in the lists of the greatest books of all time. What makes the story of the smart and proud Elizabeth Bennett and the equally proud Mr. Darcy so popular?

England, late eighteenth century. The parents of Bennett's five sisters are anxious to get their daughters married. The family's measured life is turned upside down when a young gentleman, Mr. Bingley, appears next door. Among the friends of the new neighbor there are many sophisticated aristocrats who do not mind taking care of charming sisters. Willful Elizabeth meets the handsome and arrogant Mr. Darcy. Between them there is a serious confrontation, the result of which can be both love and hatred. Will they be able to overcome all disagreements and misunderstandings?

And yet, what for several centuries makes readers laugh and cry, tremble with anger and rejoice?

At first glance, Pride and Prejudice is a romance novel. However, this is a funny comedy, and the story of growing up, and social criticism, and a philosophical parable. The novel is extremely witty. Subtle humor and elegant style of presentation do not allow him to lose his inimitable charm and brilliance. Numerous dramatic turns do not allow to break away from reading. In addition, each page is imbued with the spirit of England. With incredible irony and amazing observation, Jane Austen describes the life of provincial society, the peculiarities of etiquette and manners. With the great skill of a true artist, she reveals the spiritual life of the heroes, peers into the causes and motives. Watching a character change under the influence of certain events is incredibly exciting.
