Chrysanthemum Morris. Not exactly the best name for a nineteenth century rich man's daughter. Which is exactly what she is not. Yet. The story begins when Chrysanthemum (Chrissy) discovers that her favorite building in the world has burned down and with it, her favorite belongings. When she finds her vintage copy of the classic Jane Austen tale, Pride and Prejudice, in shreds, she also finds something that will change her life forever. This leads to that, blah blah blah, long story short she ends up becoming a character in her favorite book. But even though the pride has diminished, do the prejudices still remain? And though Chrissy may be able to fit in if she tries, is she willing to go to the extent of changing her appearance, her speech, and even her name? What makes life all the more complicated, is that she may have fallen in love, and the couple is one that society would never approve of. She has many choices to make and not all of them are easy. Welcome to nineteenth century England, Chrissy. Enjoy the ride

Pride and Prejudice
"Pride and Prejudice is an 1813 romantic novel of manners written by Jane Austen. The novel follows the character development of Elizabeth Bennet, the dynamic protagonist of the book, who learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and eventually comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness. A classic piece filled with comedy, its humour lies in its honest depiction of manners, education, marriage and money during the Regency era in Great Britain. Mr Bennet of Longbourn estate has five daughters, but because his property is entailed it can only be passed from male heir to male heir. Consequently, Mr Bennet's family will be destitute upon his death. Because his wife also lacks an inheritance, it is imperative that at least one of the girls marry well to support the others upon his death, which is a motivation that drives the plot. Jane Austen's opening line--"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife"-is a sentence filled with irony and sets the tone for the book. The novel revolves around the importance of marrying for love, not simply for economic gain or social prestige, despite the communal pressure to make a good (i.e., wealthy) match." -Wikipedia More readable version of "Pride and Prejudice" from the Gutenberg library.Concluida
