"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." The news that a wealthy young gentleman named Charles Bingley is living in Netherfield Park causes a great stir in nearby Longhorn especially in the Bennet household where Mrs Bennet is desperate to marry off her five daughters. Pride and Prejudice, arguably Jane Austen's best-loved novel, is a humorous story of love and life among English gentility in the early nineteenth century.
