A novel by Jane Austen With the statement "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife." Begins the truly amazing novel by Jane Austen. The general idea of the book is about the struggles on the way of the Bennet sisters to find a husband so this statement describes the story perfectly.
The story focuses on the Bennet sisters and their mother, her biggest wish is to see all of her girls get married. The book concentrates mostly the second oldest sister, Elizabeth and her struggles with the young, rich, quiet and handsome bachelor Mr. Darcy. The proud Mr. Darcy and the prejudiced Elizabeth develops a rather complicated relationship throughout the book.
They get introduced to one another at a ball hosted by one of the family Bennet’s neighbors. Mr. Darcy is there as company to Mr. Bingley who just moved in to a mansion on the countryside where the Bennets live. Elizabeth gets a terrible first impression of Darcy who comes off as very boring and rude. After their first meeting Elizabeth says that she hopes she´ll never have to speak to him again due to his rude and stuck up nature. But when her older sister and Mr. Bingley falls in love, it is inevitable for Elizabeth to avoid Darcy.
Even though the main theme of the book is romance and drama you can actually relate to a lot of the struggles that the characters have.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is good at reading in English. The language in the book can be quite difficult at times so you will need to have some sort of English skills to really be able to enjoy the story.
