description: A delightful novel about how girls catch husbands. Listen in to find out: what will happen to sister Lydia? will the arrogant Lady Catherine de Burgh's intrigues be foiled? will sister Jane marry Mr. Bingley? and especially, will Elizabeth, cured of her prejudice, and Mr. Darcy, cured of his pride, fall into each other's arms? Listeners will also savor the wit, the sly irony and satire and comedy that Miss Austen crowds into almost every quiet, well-bred line of this novel. There is great sanity, common sense and worldly wisdom to be found in her exploration of human nature. Sir Walter Scott said, Jane Austen had that exquisite touch which renders ordinary commonplace things and characters interesting. This quality provides today's listeners of Pride and Prejudice with a fascinating trip into the lives of the privileged in England during the eighteenth century.
