200 Years of Pride and Prejudice

All of this general loveliness has given the impression that Jane Austen’s novels are only appealing to women. But Pride and Prejudice is much more than fluffy 18thcentury chick-lit, it’s an enduring and intriguing portrait of British society and the class and gender divisions of the period. Not to mention, Jane Austen’s novels are a hoot – peppered with dry humour, eccentric characters and pin-sharp witticisms. Filled with wise words that still ring true, it is no wonder that 200 years later we still revisit this classic romance again and again. And that dear readers, is a ‘truth universally acknowledged’.
We’ve selected a few of the most amiable and unusual variations of this honourable classic…
