Here's what others have to say about Pride and Prejudice :

This timeless satire on English manners traces the fortunes and foibles of a family of marriageable young women and their suitors. -Barnes and Noble Book Editors

From The Publisher: Pride and Prejudice (1813) is Jane Austen's best known novel in which the story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy is played out among a scintillating cast of characters, including the fatuous Mr. Collins and his patroness Lady Catherine de Bourgh, the ill-matched Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, and the unscrupulous George Wickham.

From The Reader's Catalog: In Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, Austen draws a masterful portrait of love as the play of intelligence and good sense.
