By Jane Austen
Read in 8th Grade
In the countryside of Britain, there lived a family named Bennet. Mrs.Bennet's only wishes were for her 5 daughters to marry well, for Mr.Bennet's estate was entailed to an entirely removed cousin. And their fortunes seem to turn up, for an affluent man by the name of Bingley soon arrives, and develops an affinity for the eldest daughter. His friend, however, despite being even richer than he, is a very proud man, rather uncivil. In fact, he, believing that Jane doesn't return Mr.Bingley's love, convinces his friend to leave her.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth, who was offended by the man, Mr.Darcy, hears that he was quite cruel to a friend who was loved by his father. Soon thereafter, the gentleman whom the estate is entailed to arrives, with intentions of marrying Elizabeth, but gets turned down. By an odd twist of fate, he marries Elizabeth's best friend. Mrs.Bennet, a person of frequent mood swings, despairs of her daughters' perpetual single-ness. However, all is not as it seems with Mr.Bingley and Darcy.
