Book Review : Pride and Prejudice
Pride and Prejudice is a very classic book written by Jane Austen, an English novelist
whose works of romantic fiction , is one of the most well-known writers in the world.
Her realism and biting social commentary has gained her historical importance
among scholars and critics.
Pride and Prejudice is one of the representative works of Jane Austen, first published in 1813. Though the story's setting is turn-of-the-19th-century, it retains a fascination for modern readers, continuing near the top of lists of most loved books.
The novel mainly tells us a love story between Elizabeth who from a poor family and
Mr. Darcy who is a rich young man and used to be very proud .It is at a ball that
Elizabeth meets Mr. Darcy for the first time and his pride and supercilious behaviors
has left Elizabeth a terrible impression . This is the reason why Elizabeth's prejudice
towards him at first .Besides this reason , there are two other reasons strengthens
Elizabeth's prejudice .The first is that Wickham speaks ill of Mr. Darcy behind his back,
which makes she thinks him is unworthy to knowing more about him .The second
one is that Elizabeth regards Darcy is the person who separates her sister Jane and
Mr. Bingley .But with the plots developing ,Darcy has changed himself and become
no longer pride ,he also helps Jane and Bingley's reunion .All these factor change
Elizabeth's attitude towards Darcy. Eventually , Elizabeth and Darcy
break all the obstacles and become a couple and lead a happy life from then on.
From the book, we can see, owingto Darcy’s proud, he offends the girl he loves, and
because of the prejudice, Elizabeth is failed to see the advantage of Darcy, but fortunately, they didn’t miss each other ultimately.
I still remember the first sentence said in the book: “It is a truth well known to the
world that an unmarried man in possession of a large fortune must be in need of a
wife.” Through this sentence I think maybe the writer want to
tell us her views and attitudes about love and marriage.
So the theme is very clear : Marriage should be based on a real love .the foundation
of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession. Love seems to be a
perpetual theme all the time .
I love this story, it
arouse people’s awareness of the importance of true love in a marriage , also it make
me believe the true love.
All shall be well, Jack shall have Jill.
