Orgullo y prejuicio fue publicada por primera vez en 1813 y ha sido considerada una de las mejores novelas de Jane Austen. En ella, se relata la historia de las cinco hermanas Bennet y sus amores y desamores, centrándose en la figura de Elizabeth y en cómo debe superar obstáculos y madurar para descubrir a quién ama de verdad. Todo ello aderezado de un padre un poco excéntrico, una madre que roza el ridículo en sus ansias para casar a sus hijas, unas hermanas con caracteres muy diferentes y una auténtica colección de pretendientes interesados.

In this Pride and Prejudice reimagining, delicately threaded with mystery, Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet form an unlikely friendship during his stay at Netherfield.

Catherine Morland comes from a big family of modest means and has never had any aspirations to landing a Darcy or a Colonel Brandon as you might find in Austen's other novels.

John and Isabella Thorpe have their own ideas and assumptions about Miss Morland and her expectations.

In a village like every other village in Germany, a scrawny boy balances on a rope between two trees. He's practising. He practises by the mill, by the blacksmiths; he practises in the forest at night, where the Cold Woman whispers and goblins roam. When he comes out, he will never be the same. Tyll will escape the ordinary villages. In the mines he will defy death. On the battlefield he will run faster than cannonballs. In the courts he will trick the heads of state.
