Die geschwätzige Mrs. Bennet hat nur ein einziges Ziel: Eine gute Partie für jede ihrer fünf Töchter finden! Doch nicht zuletzt Intrigen und Standesdünkel machen dies zu einem schwierigen Unterfangen... Das ironische Sittengemälde aus dem frühen 19. Jahrhundert ist auch heute noch einer der beliebtesten englischen Romane!
