"Jane Austen called this brilliant work "her own darling child" and its vivacious heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, "as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print." The romantic clash between the opinionated Elizabeth and her proud beau, Mr. Darcy, is a splendid performance of civilized sparring. And Jane Austen's radiant wit sparkles as her characters dance a delicate quadrille of flirtation and intrigue, making this book the most superb comedy of manners of Regency England."
GoodreadsDespite that this isn't my favorite Austen novel, it's definitely one of her best. This novel is polished in every one of its aspects. The romance is well known for a reason and develops so nicely over the course of the novel. It's dramatic, funny, and insightful.
