Pride and Prejudice by Laura Wood

Pride and Prejudice by Laura Wood

Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcys romance comes to life once more in a stunning and truly accessible retelling of Austens beloved classic from bestseller Laura Wood.

"It takes real skill to write an abridged version of a classic novel without losing the spirit of the text, but Laura Wood has beautifully truncated Pride and Prejudice to make this wonderful story accessible to a greater breadth of readersMany of Jane Austen's witty observations and dialogue remain with a few new delightful additions" – NetGalley reviewer

"I've been wanting to read Pride and Prejudice for *years* but the language is intimidating to even me, an 18 year old English student. While I've been getting better at reading old language, I felt receiving the ARC of this book would be a better starting point than diving straight into the original text. I think this book did a great job making Austen's language more accessible to readers who need it, and I'm now very eager to go read the original text now that I know the plot and characters" – NetGalley reviewer
