The new annotated edition of Pride and Prejudice by Patricia Meyer Spacks, a professor of English, Emerita, at the University of Virginia, is so beautiful a book, so lush to the touch and rich with beautiful color images and scholarly insights, that I cannot wait to spend the weekend reading it.
Pride and Prejudice: An Annotated Edition is substantially different from the 2007 Annotated Pride and Prejudice by David Shapard, a trade paperback. At $35, this hard cover book will make the perfect gift for the Jane Austen lover in your life. Click here to read more about it. Look for my review soon.

Vic,
What a lovely cover! I am mad about book covers.
Lovely, just lovely!
Looks like B&N and amazon have pre-order specials on the pricing. I’m going to have to splurge on this…
This is a beautiful edition. The color images are such a treat. This is going to be a ‘must have’ for Austen fans.

Aesthetically refined . Really superb !!!
How exciting! I must get a copy. I LOVE my Shapard edition and have been aching for more along the same lines. You had me jumping for joy at “new annotated edition”.
