Pride and Prejudice is a romantic novel by Jane Austen set in the 18th century, first published in 1813. The story plot is about Bennet family that has 5 unmarried but attractive daughters. Mrs. Bennet is always looking for eligible prospects for her daughters especially military officers, until one day the family meets two rich, good looking and eligible bachelors who come to stay in their neighbourhood.

Adopted into the household of her uncle, Sir Thomas Bertram, Fanny price grows up a br>Meek outsider among her cousins in the Unaccustomed elegance of Mansfield Park. Soon after Sir Thomas absents himself on estate business in Antigua (the family's investment in slavery and sugar is considered in the introduction in a new, post-colonial light), Mary Crawford and her brother Henry arrive at Mansfield, bringing with them London glamour, and the seductive taste for flirtation and theatre that precipitated a crisis. While Mansfield Park appears in some ways to continue where pride and Prejudice left off, it is, as Kathryn Sutherland shows in her illuminating introduction, a much darker work, which challenges 'the very values (of tradition, stability, retirement and faithfulness) it appears to endorse'. This new edition provides an accurate text based, for the first time since its original publication, on the first edition of 1814.

When any two young people take it into their heads to marry, they are pretty sure by perseverance to carry their point, be they ever so poor, or ever so imprudent, or ever so little likely to be necessary to each other's ultimate comfort." through all the twists and turns of this timeless story, there is so much to learn, enjoy, and inspire.
