Jane Austen's most famous novel, Pride and Prejudice is set in late-eighteenth-century England and brings together families of differing social classes, binding them in tales of love, reputation and virtue. The Bennetts are looking for husbands for their daughters, in particular wealthy young bachelors who will be able to provide and support. While portraying life in the genteel rural society of the day, Pride and Prejudice focuses of the initial misunderstandings and later mutual enlightenment between Elizabeth Bennett (whose liveliness and quick wit have often attracted readers) and the haughty Mr Darcy. Jane Austen's six famous novels about love and class in the eighteenth century have been studied, performed and read for almost 200 years and still maintain a relevance and wisdom in today's society.
