PRIDE AND
PREJUDICE

, SYNOPSIS OF PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
This book arises from a deep knowledge of domestic life and
the human condition. It is a book full of satire, sharp, profound
and anti-romantic at the same time.
Pride and Prejudice has captivated several generations thanks
to its characters and its humorous description of the society of
a rural and Victorian England, which is shown to be absurd and
contradictory.
When the handsome and wealthy Mr. Darcy appears in the
Bennet family’s life, everything is turned upside down for the
five young women in the family. It is then that pride, class
differences, hypocrisy, cunning, misunderstandings and
prejudices lead the characters to pain and scandal, but also to
knowledge, understanding and true love.

, CHAPTERI
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in
posses- sion of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
However little known the feelings or views of such a man may
be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well
fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is
considered the rightful property of some one or other of their
daughters.
“My dear Mr. Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you
heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?”
Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.
“But it is,” returned she; “for Mrs. Long has just been here, and
she told me all about it.”
Mr. Bennet made no answer.
“Do you not want to know who has taken it?” cried his wife
impa- tiently.
“You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it.” This
was invitation enough.
“Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield
is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of
England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to
see the place, and was so much delighted with it, that he agreed
