Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
For over 150 years, Pride And Prejudice has remained one of the most popular novels in the English language. Jane Austen herself called this brilliant work her 'own darling child.' Pride And Prejudice, the story of Mrs. Bennet's attempts to marry off her five daughters is one of the best-loved and most enduring classics in English literature. Excitement fizzes through the Bennet household at Longbourn in Hertfordshire when young, eligible Mr. Charles Bingley rents the fine house nearby. He may have sisters, but he also has male friends, and one of these—the haughty, and even wealthier, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy—irks the vivacious Elizabeth Bennet, the second of the Bennet girls. She annoys him. Which is how we know they must one day marry. The romantic clash between the opinionated Elizabeth and Darcy is a splendid rendition of civilized sparring. As the characters dance a delicate quadrille of flirtation and intrigue, Jane Austen's radiantly caustic wit and keen observation sparkle.
Amazon.com:
Elizabeth Bennet is the perfect Austen heroine: intelligent, generous, sensible, incapable of jealousy or any other major sin. That makes her sound like an insufferable goody-goody, but the truth is she's a completely hip character, who if provoked is not above skewering her antagonist with a piece of her exceptionally sharp -- but always polite -- 18th century wit. The point is, you spend the whole book absolutely fixated on the critical question: will Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy hook up?

I loved this book and Jane Austen's style, but this is not a literary review -- this review is on the Everyman's Library Edition.
This printing is wonderful and I absolutely love the everyman's library books. If the book wasn't spotless, I would almost think it was an antique edition. The cover is lovely, the binding is solid, the paper is thick and matte, and the font is legible.
This book is to be read, loved and proudly shelved for display. Don't waste your money on some tiny, stiff, mass-market paperback.
EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY EDITION -- TOTALLY RECOMMENDED!

I recently finished reading Pride and Prejudice for the sixth time and can honestly say it was better than it ever has been before. The very first reading, in high school, was a little rough. Since then, this book has grown on me each time (silly to say, since it is my FAVORITE book and the only one I have re-read as often). The humour is fantastic, the characters are both wonderful and suited so well to the time period, and Mr. Darcy is a classic "leading man". Who doesn't want to find the modern day version of Mr. Darcy?

The edition of "Pride and Prejudice" that has a painting of Darcy & Elizabeth kissing on the cover (ISBN number 1438242816) is entirely redesigned on the inside, too. It's large (6"x9") and printed on high-quality paper, unlike most of the other versions. A great bargain at this low price!

I'm not really qualified enough to give the comments for this wonderful classic book. What I can give is the comments on the physical outlook of the book.
Beautiful cover, old content pages, wonderful old book renouveau!

Jane Austen is the best author ever. I love all her work but this is the best one of all.I love Mr. Darcy and Elisabeth. They are the perfect main characters. It does not get any better then this. If anyone can write a better novel then this that person is a genious. I love to read and of all the many books I have read this one is the greatest. This book is simply perfect.
