Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice is my favourite book ever. I've read it over and over and I always find more reasons to love it. It was written in 1813 and is considered a classic. Several film and TV interpretations have been made of it. It has romance, wit and fabulous characters. I find myself laughing the whole way through it but also enjoying the delicious tension between the two main characters Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet.
The first line of the book is one of the most famous opening lines of any novels.
Quoting Jane Austen, "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife."
