Pride and Prejudice

For more than 200 years, "Pride and Prejudice" has remained one of the best examples of Victorian literature, maintaining its freshness and wit for contemporary readers. This psychologically complex and simultaneously infused with subtle irony novel was written by Jane Austen at the age of just 21, which revolutionized literature, proving that a woman has the right to be a writer. Walter Scott said of her: "The creator of the modern novel, whose events are centered around the everyday fabric of human life and the state of contemporary society." 

The artist Evgenia Melnikova is close in age to Jane Austen at the time of writing "Pride and Prejudice," which is why the illustrations resonate so harmoniously with the spirit of the novel, while also being independent and original.
