520 _a"Tory of Mr. Bennet, an English gentleman, who lives in Hertfordshire with his overbearing wife and five daughters. The Bennet girls; the graceful Jane, the dexterous Elizabeth, the studious Mary, the juvenile Kittty and the wild Lydia; although very distinct in nature from one another are living happily with their parents in the town house. But, to their dismay, if Mr. Bennet dies their distant cousin will inherit this house. Hence, the security and prosperity of the family depends on the daughters marrying into rich families. Soon a wealthy bachelor Mr. Bingley, along with his uptight friend Mr. Darcy, moves into a house nearby. This new turn of events makes Mrs. Bennet hopeful for her daughters’ future and, soon enough, the beautiful Jane falls for Mr. Bingley. While this hopeful union is taking place, Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy start up battles of sexes eventually falling for each other. This amusing story of love and life in the class-conscious England of the late 18th century, is sure to bring you moments of cheer, love and laughter."--
