Pride and Prejudice (version 3)
Jane Austen
Read by Karen Savage
Pride and Prejudice is the most famous of Jane Austen’s novels, and its opening is one of the most famous lines in English literature - “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.” Its manuscript was first written between 1796 and 1797, and was initially called First Impressions, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on 28 January 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out Sense and Sensibility. Like both its predecessor and Northanger Abbey, it was written at Steventon Rectory. (Summary from Wikipedia)

Reviews
Brilliant reading by Karen Savage
paulsueh
My favourite Jane Austen book bought to life by the excellent reading of Karen Savage and much to some people's surprise Karen is an American not British. Her diction is superb. when she pronounces certain words : i.e enquiry, her American accent comes through. Truly a joy to listen to

I friken, Love it! It was well narraited and easy to understand. Now I'm gonna go watch the movie, of course, and feel gratified in that reading the book gave me a few more details on the characters thoughts, and what became of them after Darcy and Lizzy marry.:)

My favourite version of Pride and Prejudice - excellent reading, clean and clear. Pleasant and easy to listen to - this must be my fifth run at least because I enjoy KS's reading so much.
Karen Savage is the BEST
