Blurb:

This collectable edition is beautifully crafted and designed. Perfect for gifting as well as for keeps. A prized edition for any library.

When Elizabeth Bennet meets Fitzwilliam Darcy for the first time at a ball, she writes him off as an arrogant and obnoxious man. He not only acts like an insufferable snob, but she also overhears him rejecting the very idea of asking her for a dance! As life pits them against each other again and again, Darcy begins to fall for Elizabeth's wit and intelligence and Elizabeth begins to question her feelings about Darcy. But when Darcy saves her youngest sister Lydia from a scandal, Elizabeth starts to wonder if her pride has prejudiced her opinion of Darcy. Through this tale about two warring hearts, Jane Austen weaves a witty satire about life in eighteenth century England. And though it was published more than two centuries ago, Pride and Prejudice continues to enthrall readers to this very day.

A beautiful classic leather-bound edition, this book is perfect as keepsake.

Review

He has too much pride, she has too much prejudice, would they be together?

Ever since I watched the movie based on this book, I wanted to read it. And finally, I have.

They say never judge a book by its cover, and it so true.

Pride and prejudice is now my all-time fav. Written by Jane Austin, it a story that you would fall in love with. The words flow so beautifully and easily that you cannot help but go with them.

Oh,  I just loved it.

Hope you enjoy reading it.

Lots of Love

• Hello, please tell us something about yourself.

I am a published writer written for several anthologies and a reader and learner. I also teach in an NGO.

• Please tell us something about your book ‘Altitudinis’

This book is a collaborative work. We all were writers with different styles of writing and different wavelengths. But it was a pleasure working with all because everyone was willing to listen to others slash their egos for a larger good. Tireless editing also helped the book into a cohesive whole.

Meet Shagun - Author who writes from the Heart

#AuthorInterviews

• Hello, please tell us something about yourself.

An intuitive Reiki practioner with a scientific background, I believe there’s something good in every individual or situation. A mom, homemaker, friend and writer with heart in the mind spot, I believe in the power of thoughts. To keep my soul ignited I write on my blog Twisted Fabric at the writingsofshagun.wordpress.com.
On a personal note, as a child, I often fantasised about the fairy tales and wanted to write my own. As a grown up woman, it’s been another story altogether. I’ve often felt the restraints of time cut sharply on my day-dreaming thoughts. A mom of two super active and curious young boys, I do not adhere to the mantra of study-study-and-only-study. So for us, its hands-on practical fun too mixed with studies. And in all that fun, my food very often gets burnt …. looking beyond constipated! So while the food gets sorted and the homework gets done, I feel a soft nudge from a grey cell in my mind, to find a quiet corner for my laptop and me. I try to focus as I sit and write away whatever that interests me. I so hope that it would touch the readers’ soul and ignite a spark as they just might read along with me.
