Well, I already own it
"Those who produce should have, but we know that those who produce the most — that is, those who work hardest, and at the most difficult and most menial tasks, have the least."

Why didn't you just choose Little Women, for crying out loud?
Pride and Prejudice: Part Taming of the Shrew, part teen romance novel, part Victorian fluff piece.
I had to read it once for college English. Once was enough. Bad choice out of you guys. I'll wait for the June book, if I'm around a computer then.
Anyway, the entire exercise is probably futile, no matter which classic you choose. No matter what, there will be too many pesky words and not enough pictures (and zero video) to appeal to today's YouTube crowd. The age of logic and technology has overwritten man's ability to interpret art.
@Heyduke
you've committed female sacrilege saying that. Expect to be hated.

already got a copy and read it again. I'm ready to read and roll! (fair warning guys, I read at about a thousand words a min.)
Do me a favor @momsapplepie look in your regular book and tell me where page 50 ends. It may not be the same on e books.

Elizabeth started a conversation with Darcy over his writing a letter to his sister that turns into an exchange over his friendship and how much sway he has over Bingham.
Unless you are female, unless you understand what women in that era went through should they not be rich and unmarried. It was social commentary, not a Taming of the Shrew as Elizabeth was neither a shrew nor tamed @Heyduke.
