About this listen

"His perfect indifference, and your pointed dislike, make it so delightfully absurd!"

Pride and Prejudice has delighted generations of readers with its unforgettable cast of characters, carefully choreographed plot, and a hugely entertaining view of the world and its absurdities. With the arrival of eligible young men in their neighbourhood, the lives of Mr and Mrs Bennet and their five daughters are turned inside out and upside down. Pride encounters prejudice, upward-mobility confronts social disdain, and quick-wittedness challenges sagacity, as misconceptions and hasty judgements lead to heartache and scandal, but eventually to true understanding, self-knowledge, and love. In this supremely satisfying story, Jane Austen balances comedy with seriousness, and witty observation with profound insight. If Elizabeth Bennet returns again and again to her letter from Mr Darcy, readers of the novel are drawn even more irresistibly by its captivating wisdom.

Excellent Performance!

We all know and love Pride and Prejudice, but this rendition is great depiction of all the beloved characters. I sampled several audiobook versions before settling on this one as the best.

Fav book, thankfully well done

This is my all time favourite book and I've never bothered getting it as an audiobook since most of the narrators make Mrs. Bennet and Lydia sound like the worst characters. Lydia was still narrated a little more bratty than I'd like, but all in all narrator did a fabulous job.

Favourite book of all time

This is my favourite book of all time. I listen to it over and over! It has so many clever moments. The narration by Lindsay Duncan is wonderful, she does a really great portrayal of the characters and her voice is very enjoyable to listen too.
