Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice
We can all certainly agree that Jane Austen is one of the best authors when it comes to classics, but we can also agree that not everybody favors classics! Pride and Prejudice is a wonderfully written novel with a smooth pace of events. I noticed as I read the novel that Jane has a remarkable writing style; both sophisticated and suffocating.
I usually turn to books for comfort and satisfaction, it's just the way authors portray their thoughts on smooth paper that bends so easily with every turning page; however, the compatibility of the thoughts of two people varies drastically sometimes. I could not but think of the Bennets as utterly mundane, and as I flipped through the pages, I was introduced to characters I failed to care about. The essential emotional bond between the reader and the characters was completely missing.
I do suggest this novel to whoever enjoys general classics, but if you find emotional bonding between the reader and the characters essential, I suggest you avoid Pride and Prejudice in addition to every other classic that may be thrown your way.
