About this listen

This Jane Austen classic is an amusing story of love and life, laughter and destiny. The story centres around one Mr. Bennett, a henpecked English gentleman who lives in Herfortshire with his wife and five daughters. All the daughters, while having very distinct manners and natures to one other, are happily living with their parents in the town house. The issue, however, is that if Mr. Bennett dies then a distant cousin stands to inherit the house.

For the sake of security and prosperity of the family, a plan to marry away the daughters into rich families therefore comes into fruition. Soon a wealthy bachelor, Mr. Bingley, along with his friend, Mr. Darcy, moves into a house nearby, and the merry-go-round of courtship and marriage begins. This is a classic for all ages and a compulsory listen for anyone to lighten up their day.

Great performance by Mona

Loved the way mona performed the story and voiced all the characters. I'm listening to the classic 2nd time and have lost the count how many times I've read it and Austen never dissapoints. She rocks as always. I never get bored of this classic. Kudos audible.

Wonderful narration

can't believe the audible narrator is actually Indian origin. Though there were times it felt like an Indian touch to the nuances of narration here and there. Have read the novel twice and hearing it now on audible. The narration was so good, it did justice. of course not strict British accent but who cares, this was already good.

Superb narration of a classic

one can never tire of Elizabeth and Darcy and thought there are many audio books available this was by all means one of the best. Mona Shetty was refreshing and excellent in her narration
