Description
The writer began working on «Pride and Prejudice» at the age of 21. Publishers rejected the manuscript, and it lay forgotten for more than fifteen years. Only after the success of «Sense and Sensibility» could Jane Austen publish her «favorite child». Before publication, she carefully revised it and achieved an unusual combination of cheerfulness, directness, epigrammatic style, mature thought, and mastery. It’s no accident that «Pride and Prejudice», still unsurpassed in its charm and brilliance, is considered the most perfect of everything created by Jane Austen.
