Dear Jane,
200 hundred years ago today my favorite book was published, Pride and Prejudice. I am finding it hard to accurately express my love of this novel. It is glorious.
It is universally acknowledged that Pride and Prejudice still stands as a beloved novel 200 hundred years later. Despite the vast changes in the two century’s your book has stayed current. Your novel is quick and observant of all your characters giving a vivid picture of not only the characters but also the themes, love, distrust and over coming misguided judgement.
Each time I read Pride and Prejudice, despite knowing the plot, I still loath Mr. Darcy for his haughtiness and fill sympathetic towards Wickham’s sob story. Your words are that convincing. I could go on with my adoration (or announce) for each in the book but that would make for a long tedious post. It is late, but I could not end the day with showing my appreciation to your steller novel. Thank you Jane Austen
Amen to this post! Oh how I love you Jane. I posted on Persuasion today because I love P&P and Persuasion is still my fav.
A great anniversary – unbelievable how much power the story still has after 200 years. Hope you are having a good week.
Perfect! Pride and Prejudice is my favorite book, too.
Lovely tribute to a wonderful book! I agree with everything you said here. Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite books, it's the kind of story that never gets old. And yes, it is glorious.
