Pride and Prejudice

USD $ 9,99

Complete and unabridged, with 100 full-page plates by Thomas Gainsborough, J. M. W. Turner and Edward William Cooke. A young woman with a sharp tongue and no fortune meets a rich man with worse manners than her own, and both spend the book discovering how badly they read each other. Austen wrote the first draft at twenty-one and could not sell it; the novel appeared sixteen years later, anonymously, as by the author of Sense and Sensibility. Nobody has improved on its opening sentence since. A hundred plates after Steen and Raeburn, ranging from peasant weddings and parrot cages to Regency portraits, restore the crowded, watchful world of courtship and property that Austen's lovers must navigate.

Jane Austen

Autor

Steventon, 1775-Winchester, 1817. Novelista británica. Séptima hija de una familia de ocho hermanos, su padre se encargó personalmente de su educación. En 1801, los Austen se trasladaron a Bath y luego a Chawton, un pueblo de Hampshire, donde la escritora redactó la mayoría de sus novelas. Apacible, sereno y equilibrado es su modo de escribir, y describe con sutil ironía el ambiente de la clase alta rural del sur de Inglaterra. El interés de sus obras reside en los diferentes matices psicológicos de sus personajes, y en la descripción, con una buena dosis de crítica, del ambiente social en que sitúa a sus protagonistas, que no es otro que el suyo propio, el de la burguesía acomodada.
