Pride & Prejudice
By Jane Austen
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man
in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife."
in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife."
The story is about three couples, particularly Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. In the novel the author show us the principal life style of that time and the society and how some couples try somehow fight against those felings and in other case the characters try to stay together against the reject of people around them.
The story occur in England in a little town near London, between the XVIII and the XIX centuries .
The main characters are Elizabeth Bennet & Fitzwilliam Darcy; there is too Jane Bennet and Charles Bingley and finally is Lydia Bennet and George Wickham. The first couple (Elizabeth and Mr Darcy) goes trought a metamorphosis during the novel, specially 'cause they gave the name to the book she has a lot of prejudice for Mr. Darcy and he can't leave his pride aside.
On the other side we have Jane and Mr Bingley they represent all the goodness, Jane almost doesn't believe that a person can be mean and Mr Bingley... Is like he couldn't see all the bad things that can happen in the world, neither of them can believe that they got separated by Mr Darcy and one of the sisters of Mr Bingley, eventually when they are all ready toghether again they forgive Mr Darcy 'cause they believe that he do that only 'cause he think it was the best for them and eventually he apologise to them for taking that desision.
Finally Lydia is the maximum expresion of naivety and flirt, is actually because of this that she end up married with Wickham, she truely think that he loves her but the only thing that matters to him is having money and having a good time, it was never he's intentions to be married with her but money talks...
The principal subject of the book is to show the reality of the time how the live and how the survive is interesting notice that some of the things that happend in there are still going on may be just more hide tan then.
One of the things that I like the most is that nobody write stories that can be so trascendental trough the time anymore is easy to feel touch by one of the characters and it is easy to feel like you are not the only one with that kind of feelings and thoughts inside your head.
I love this book because it shows a reality maybe it isn't the reality of everybody but that doesn't mean things like that doesn't happend anymore.
I think she is a great author that no one can reflect the feelings of the people the way she does, and obviously I don't think she is boring at least me she caught me into her books and is so difficult to let it go that story.
I don't know if I recommend the book I mean obviously I like the story and everything else but I don't believe everybody can understand the complexity of the book that it is hide behaind the simplicity that she shows.
Well thats all xoxo...
