Happy 200th birthday, Pride and Prejudice! This makes me a nerd, but I even bought my copy on the weekend before its birthday. A lovely copy it is. Only, after our BHS Reads Book Club chose P.D. James' Death Comes to Pemberley did I read Pride and Prejudice, which I am embarrassed to say I have never read. I have now, though, and can finally watch the movie!
I loved the novel. Yes, language is early 19th Century, but I so appreciate Austin's character development of the Bennett family. Resonating with me, Elizabeth was the character with whom I most bonded, maybe because my character echoes her own?
More to come...
