Jane Austen, author of Pride Prejudice, the English novelist, gives the novel its modern character through her treatment of the details of everyday life in provincial English middle-class society. The main object of satire in her novel Pride and Prejudice is the mercenary and ignorance of the people-a common criticism of the 18th century. Jane Austen’s powers of subtle discrimination and shrewd perceptiveness are revealed in Pride and Prejudice; she is able to convey such a complex message using a simple, yet witty style.

The plot of the novel is simple that is how the young ladies choose their husbands.
