Summary

Jane Austen's most popular novel, originally published in 1813, some 17 years after it was first written, presents the Bennet family of Longbourn. Against the background of gossipy Mrs. Bennet and the detached Mr. Bennet, the quest is on for husbands for the five daughters. The spotlight falls on Elizabeth, second eldest, who is courted by Darcy, though initially she is more concerned with the fate of her other sisters.

Pride & Prejudice is one of those books I felt I ought to read but just haven't gotten around to it. When I saw there was a version narrated by Emilia Fox I decided this was the way to go, having previously enjoyed her narration of different Audible books. I am so glad I did as she brought the characters to life and has secured this book a place on my shelves (and iPhone).

What made the experience of listening to Pride and Prejudice the most enjoyable?

Read beautifully by Emilia Fox. Always one of my favourite books.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Inevitably, Elizabeth Bennett, closely followed by Mr Collins. Emilia Fox brought out his 'cringiness' superbly.

What does Emilia Fox bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Her reading was so good that it brought out hidden depths.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I wanted to, but it actually took three or four listening episodes. Time so well spent.

Any additional comments?

Just loved this rendition.

Out of all the adaptations, this is the easiest to listen to..
Beautifully narrated and voiced, characterisation and humour gently interpreted. I can only thinkMs. Austen would be happy with this narration.

A classic

Perfect narrator for my favourite novel. Jane Austen's P&P is just wonderfully rich in wit, observation and Characters. A marvellous classic
