This brand new unabridged audio book production, on 10 full-length CDs, is a must-have for any Jane Austen fan. Pride and Prejudice is the most popular of Jane Austen's novels, and its opening is one of the most famous lines in English literature "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." First written between 1796 and 1797, the book was initially called First Impressions, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on January 28, 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out Sense and Sensibility. Like both its predecessor and Northanger Abbey, it was written at Steventon Rectory.
