In fact I watched the movie 'pride & prejudice' before i read the book. It was really interesting movie so I wanted to read the book. Finally I read the book 'pride and prejudice'
At first I wondered why the book title is 'pride and prejudice'
Now I know the reason why the title is like that.
The main characters are Elizabeth and Darcy.
There are many people who don't realize their love although they meet each other. Because they have pride and prejudice.
Elizabeth also had pride and prejudice.
Although Darcy declared his love but Elizabeth rejected it.
But eventually she realized her love and fell in love with darcy.
After i read the book, I decided to throw my prejudice away.
If I throw it, I will find my love. I believe it.
it was really good show more book to me. show less
Story about pride and prejudice is interestig but not about love for me...also it's not easy to understand the situation.
It is a long fiction book. This famous novel is about a young lady Elizabeth who reject a young rich man Darcy because of her prejudice. Also, Darcy also made a mistake due to his pride. They almost missed each other because of their mistakes. But finally, they get married and forgive each other.
Què es pot dir d'un llibre que llegeixes tot pensant en la teva tieta que s'està morint? que sort que ja l'havies llegit en català i que sort que el vocabulari no és difícil, i que la previsibilitat de la història t'ajuda quan deixes de prestar atenció.
Una novel·la tan rosa, tan allunyada dels nostres valors, hàbits, propòsits! jo la comparo amb una caixa de bombons: la família Bennet en té cinc a punt de menjar, i el llibre tracta de saber qui mereixerà les exquisides (o no tant!) noies Bennet; del que sembla i del que és.
Però ara, ja per sempre, l'associaré amb la tieta Rosa i els seus últims dies.
