Pride And Prejudice (Graphic Novel)

Description

Jane Austen referred to Pride and Prejudice (1813), the earliest of her published novels, as her "darling child"--and generations of readers have taken it to heart ever since. The irresistible attraction she portrays between the sparkly, independent Elizabeth Bennet and the solemnly austere Mr. Darcy counts among the greatest, mostromantic--and funniest--love stories ever told. In this graphic-novel adaptation, writer Ian Edginton and artist Robert Deas introduce one of the best-loved works of English literature to a new generation of readers.
