Pride and Prejudice

“Bedtime Reading No.9 in 5000 English Words: Pride and Prejudice (in Pure English) tells a love story between Elizabeth and Darcy, a pair of young men and women. At first, the two of them did not see eye to eye with each other. The story took place in the late 18th century, in Hertfordshire (located in the southeast of England) about 50 miles from London, England. The book vividly depicts the hardships of women’s lives at that time, that is, they can hardly grasp their own destiny. Since the British society in the 18th century valued social status and personal manners and talents, women tried their best to find rich husbands.”
