In the 1813 Jane Austen classic, the strong-headed Elizabeth Bennett—forced to marry for financial security—enters into a scandalous excursion of love and courtship. "Pride and Prejudice" offers a window into a world of desperate spinsters, determined bachelors, nosy neighbors and embarrassing relatives.
