Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Donated by Christine Rayner, who says...
This is a story of human endeavour, demonstrating the consequence of making assumptions as we follow the characters subsequent journeys to break down barriers of mistrust to find love and tearing down walls of deceit to find truth.
Although written over 200 years ago, the awkwardness of family relationships, the complications in friendships and the rush to form those important first impressions, all have something important to teach us today.
It is a book that inspires me constantly.
