Using a novel's ability to be enjoyed upon being reread as a barometer, Harold Bloom states that Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice "can rival any novel ever written." Along with a collection of some of the best criticism available on her work, this text includes a brief biography of the author, structural and thematic analysis, an index of themes and ideas, and more. This series is edited by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University; Henry W. and Albert A. Berg Professor of English, New York University Graduate School. These texts are the ideal aid for all students of literature, presenting concise, easy-to-understand biographical, critical, and bibliographical information on a specific literary work. Also provided are multiple sources for book reports and term papers with a wealth of information on literary works, authors, and major characters.

You are a goddess Ms. Austin,
By Melissa Johnson (Albany, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pride & Prejudice (Blms Notes) (Bloom's Notes) (Library Binding)
Even though I usually shy away from anything labeled 'romantic'. What a great novel! I am on my second copy due to an unfortunate bathing accident. Jane is witty, smart and her writing never gets tiresome. Wherever you are Jane, thank you!

Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice,
This review is from: Bloom Pride and Prejudice (Bloom's Reviews) (Paperback)
A masterpiece. I consider this to be the authors finest piece. The only fault I found were the lenghty descriptions and at times the story lagged as is true to the time period. Elizabeth Bennet proved to be a worthy charature as well as Mr. Darcy. They were both very interesting charactures and in the end I felt as to kow them. I was much surprised to find out about Mr. Wickhams charature, he was not what I had thought him to be.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful and Beautiful,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bloom Pride and Prejudice (Bloom's Reviews) (Paperback)
I think this book is great. I just read it to do a book report on it (i'm in junior hi) and didn't expect to like it. I thought the way it was written would be more like anna karenina or something. I read it and totally loved it. I have seen both the A&E movie version and the BBC one. I thought both were great. I loved Darcy and Elizabeth. The ending leaves so many possibilities to be thought of. If you didn't like this book, guy from NY, why bother to write a page on it?
