This special edition invites fans inside the world of Pride and
Prejudice with the inclusion of gorgeous, removable replicas of 19
letters from the story.
Step inside the world of Pride and Prejudice, one of the most beloved
novels of all time. Jane Austen's classic tale follows the ups and downs
of the relationship between Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, two
unforgettable characters who come alive in their letters and other
writings.
Nothing captures Jane Austen's vivid emotion and keen wit better than
her characters' correspondence. As you read this deluxe edition of the
novel, you will find pockets throughout containing replicas of all 19
significant letters from the story, re-created with beautiful
calligraphy and painstaking attention to historical detail. These
powerful epistles include Lydia's announcement of her elopement, Mr.
Collins's obsequious missives, and of course Darcy's painfully honest
letter to Elizabeth. Pull out each one, peruse its contents, and allow
yourself to be transported straight to the drawing room at Netherfield
or the breakfast table at Longbourn.
For anyone who loves Jane Austen, and for anyone who still cherishes the
joy of letter writing, this book illuminates a favorite story in a whole
new way.
