Mr. Bennet, owner of the Longbourn estate in Hertfordshire, has five daughters, but his property is entailed and can only be passed to a male heir. His wife also lacks an inheritance, so his family faces becoming very poor upon his death.

Jane Austen sneakily exposes the appalling treatment of women in this cutting and often hilarious satirical examination of the English Patriarchy during the Classic Regency period. One can't help wondering what further mischief, Elizabeth if furnished with extensive wealth and position, would get up to in the future.
A delightful period Novel of immense and understated importance that denounces misogyny through the artifice of satirical romcom.
