P&P
So, despite some of the criticism and subtle attacks at the culture that I'm sure I've missed, I can say that I do like the attacks Jane Austen has made on the culture that she's stuck in. Having had to read a biography on her and watched Sense and Sensibility (which was similar in some respects), it is a bit easier to understand where she's coming from. Though some of the language and situations are rather confusing, she still conveys her message. What I really find interesting is how Jane Austen calls out pride and prejudice within the book. I like how she throws her own opinion through characters but also balances it against the views of the majority of the time.
