Pride and Prejudice
I did not like this book written by Jane Austen. Mr. Bingley is a wealthy young gentleman, who rents a country estate near the Bennets. He is accompanied by his sisters and his good friend, Mr Darcy. Bingley starts to court 22-year-old Jane, but suddenly leaves, causing her to feel confused and upset. Mr. Darcy is attracted to 20-year-old Elizabeth, but some of his actions cause her to be suspicious of him. Later on he writes a letter to her explaining his behavior and it causes her to reconsider having a relationship with him.
The book was published in 1813 and about 20 million copies have been sold. Charlotte Brontë thought the novel was a disappointment. A 2005 film version was made starring Keira Knightley.
