Pride & Prejudice : Review



Pride & Prejudice 

This book by Jane Austen from the early 1800s still does its work and still changes lives. As far as I can tell, books always make a change in the reader's mind, by the perfections of its characters, the perspectives of the author, or anything that the book is about. 
   
        I would call this book really 'agreeable', as that is a word very frequently used in the book. I hardly ever find ANY book disinteresting, so there's never really anything disgraceful that I have to say about them. Talking about Pride & Prejudice, it's nearly the best book I've read so far, and the storyline is flawless. The characters, when you talk about them, they're so remarkably described, that you can immediately have a picture of them in the deepest end of your mind. The protagonists, Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet, have a special connection from the very beginning of the book. Their attributes, being so unlike, complement each other so very much and till the end of the book I'm sure you'd wish for them to unite. Every character has a very appropriate ending, and it couldn't have been better. The proudy got misery and the lovable got contentment (just the standard happy ending, but I assure you it's awesome). 

         The characters of Lydia Bennet and Mr Wickham have been so perfectly described, that at one point or another you'd probably grow to detest them. The striking and dramatic character of Mrs Bennet who, at times, seems to be a mercenary, adds life and humour to the book. 
        The way that the story leads from the characters being ball dance partners to aquantainces to friends to fiancés, will leave you yearning until you really have read the book.

          Elizabeth meets Mr Darcy in a ball at Netherfield, where they don't have a very pleasant encounter, but gradually Mr Darcy falls in love with Eliza, while she grows to hate him. But as the happy-ending protocol directs, in the end it all turns up well. 

          This book full of beautiful characters with ample of villains, is a MUST READ. This book is one of those which you 'ought to read before you die', so if you're reading this stuff, you gotta put this book in your bucket-list, like, immediately.

        The book kills pride so bad that it has been adapted into a movie also, with the same name. With actors Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen as the protagonists, this is such a wonderful little movie which is totally, totally worth your dear time. 

        So when you've done reading the book, you'd be able to relate to this review.
        Toodles readers!
