Jane Austen began writing Pride and Prejudice when she was just twenty years old, though it would not be published until seventeen years later, in 1813. Widely regarded as one of the first romantic comedies in literary history, the novel’s entanglements and misunderstandings are deftly interwoven with a sharp, ironic critique of English society.
Mrs Bennet is determined to secure a prosperous future for her five daughters through advantageous marriages. Her second-eldest, Elizabeth, is just as resolute that Fitzwilliam Darcy – the most arrogant, self-important man she has ever met – will not be one of her suitors. Darcy, in turn, considers Elizabeth an unfit match due to her lower social standing and limited connections. Yet the heart seldom obeys reason, and both are forced to examine their own prejudices in the pursuit of true love.
A Farewell to Arms is one of Ernest Hemingway’s most popular books, a masterpiece that is not only among the greatest novels to come out of World War I but also one of the most profoundly moving in the American canon. Based on Hemingway’s own experience volunteering with the Red Cross in Italy during World War I, and written when he was only thirty, it tells the story of Frederic Henry, an American ambulance driver, and Catherine Barkley, an English nurse. For Frederic, Catherine’s kindness and beauty shore him up against the carnage of battle; for Catherine, Frederic’s strength and devotion are a lifeboat in the sea of grief over her first love. Through injury, surgery, and the psychic fallout of war, they maintain an overwhelming desire to be together, even as forces conspire to keep them apart. Hemingway captures the intensity of both love and war with the taut immediacy and spare, understated eloquence that are his hallmarks, reminding us why this novel—his first bestseller—endures as a favorite, and why the Nobel laureate ranks among our most treasured writers.
