Pride and Prejudice

[nx74defiant]

Classic. I loved it. The book is much harder on Mr Bennett than the movies. I got the impression from the movie he is a poor put upon soul. Lost in Austin made me realize how badly he failed his daughters. In the book it is much clearer his responsibility in his families failings. He enjoys laughing at his wife and 2 youngest daughter. He deliberately sets his wife off into a tizzy. He does nothing to rein in Lydia until it is to late.
