for Cambridge IGCSE Literature in English
One of Austen’s best-loved novels, Pride and Prejudice offers Cambridge IGCSE students an array of enchanting characters and a story full of intrigue and humour.

This Study Guide inspires me... The author clearly loves Pride and Prejudice, but, more importantly, knows and communicates why 16 year olds should also love it. A superb resource. J Whitbread, English Teacher & Independent Reviewer (feedback for previous edition)
