  • Essay / Pride and Prejudice: one of the greatest love stories...

    I want to read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, her most brilliant novel, because she has composed a timeless and analogous story to anyone who takes the time to read it. As you read this story, you become absorbed by the times, the lives of the characters and you feel like you are living it with them.

Virtually, the plot of Pride and Prejudice consists of Elizabeth Bennent and Mr. Darcy overcoming all the obstacles that are introduced to them and finding true love in each other.All the characters in Pride and Prejudice are absolutely different, but in a way, they are the same.

Jane's gentleman... middle of paper ......r life and how it happened, especially Elizabeth and Jane. Pride and Prejudice was recently made into a hit film, the cast portrayed the character from the great novel in an extraordinary way. I saw the movie before reading the book, the movie was wonderful and I loved it. After seeing the movie I decided to read the book to see how it compared to the movie, the book has more detail than the movie but they are both excellent. Anyone who has seen the movie should definitely read the book. Nearly two hundred years after Pride and Prejudice was written, it still remains one of the greatest books of all time.
