Publisher Description
Pride and Prejudice is a masterpiece of wit and perception, ridiculing the superficial manners of Jane Austen’s time. But it is more than just social satire. Notice, in particular, how the author’s close attention to detail makes the events and characters so true to life. Above all, enjoy the story – its sheer narrative force and humour – and enter a world of snobbery, romance and uncertainty, in which people behave casually, indifferently or even cruelly – in short just like people behave everywhere in the world today.
Customer Reviews
A very nice performance
In this abridged performance of PRIDE & PREJUDICE, Joanna Lumley offers us a nice range of characterizations. Her performance is a nice distraction from (to me) the awkward abridgment.
It is for Ms Lumley's voice I like this performance, not the abridgement (there are better abridgments). Hence the four stars.
***
Dear Lonzette: Winona Ryder never acted in PRIDE & PREJUDICE. The role you're thinking of is when she played Jo March in LITTLE WOMEN (1994).
