Pride and Prejudice

Mrs. Bennet has five unmarried daughters and not a single suitor among them. Luckily Netherfield Hall is to be let at last and to an eligible gentleman: the handsome and charming Mr. Bingley. Lovely Jane Bennet soon attracts Bingley’s attention while witty and headstrong Lizzie conceives an instant dislike for Bingley’s proud standoffish and obscenely wealthy friend Mr. Darcy. Amid flirtations misunderstandings dashing soldiers an intimidating aristocrat and a very persistent clergyman cousin the Bennet sisters do their best to navigate the perilous world of Regency romance. But will there be wedding bells and happily-ever-afters – or will the Bennet family’s romantic adventures end in scandal and disgrace? In this fresh adaptation by Emma Whipday her wit and wisdom shine in a timeless tale of self-discovery and romance.
