It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. At least Mrs Bennet is determined that this is the case, but as she pushes her five daughters at every matrimonial prospect, not every encounter goes to plan . . . This classic full of wit, humour and romance gets a whole new look with a gorgeous cover by Emily Sutton.
