How it begins It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.

About this story

Mrs Bennet has five daughters and not much money, so when a rich young man rents the big house nearby, she is determined to see one of them married to him. Elizabeth, the second daughter, has other ideas. She meets his proud friend Mr Darcy and decides within minutes what sort of man he is.

Jane Austen published it in 1813. She had written an early draft, called First Impressions, in the 1790s. Its fame rests on its first line and on Elizabeth, whose quick wit makes the book funny even when it is serious. Below the comedy it is a sharp study of money, class, and how easily people misjudge each other.

Themes
First impressions, class and money, marriage, pride
