Pride & Prejudice

|

I have FINALLY finished "Pride and Prejudice!" The group of readers from my exercise group decided that we needed to read one of the classics, and this is the one we settled on.

I really enjoyed "Emma," the production with Gwyneth Paltrow, and "Sense and Sensibility," with Emma Thompson. Both of those productions helped me to set a sense of cadence in the language, and the form of interaction that was acceptable early in the 1800s. I thought I'd be able to breeze through "Pride and Prejudice," but it was slow going.
