Although this novel is regarded as one of the ‘cannon’ of English Literature, when it was first written many people regarded it as fickle and trashy. Elizabeth Bennett has an embarrassing mother, desperate sisters, a frustrated father and a sinking feeling she will never find true happiness in her society. The book vividly depict the trials facing young girls of the 19th Century with humour (yes- honestly!) irony and a good dose of old fashioned romance.
