Pride & Prejudice Enriched, a question

AnemicOak · 02-25-2009, 04:39 PM

Last year Penguin released an enriched or enhanced ebook edition of Pride & Prejudice. I'm hoping Harry, who I know will know which one I'm talking about, or someone else can confirm for me that this is the correct version...

TIA!

Well, the description does say the following......not sure exactly what else you would consider 'enhanced'..

? The most complete e-version of Pride & Prejudice for e-book readers, including Kindle or Sony Reader

? A chronology and suggestions for further reading

? A filmography

? Period book reviews of Pride & Prejudice

? "What did Jane Eat?" - selected period recipes, including "How to Prepare Tea"

? A literary tour of noteworthy Jane Austen sites, including a black and white map of sites from Pride & Prejudice

? Period-appropriate black and white illustrations of fashion, home d?cor, architecture, and transportation, as well as instructions on dancing and social etiquette

Right, and I think it's the one everyone was talking about way back when. I guess it's cheap enough not to be a big deal if it's not.

pilotbob · 02-25-2009, 04:54 PM

True.

Then there is this one... "Complete Illustrated" for only $.99.

I guess that's when the 16 grey scale on the K2 comes in handy.

Yes, it's the same one. When I clicked on the link, it told me I'd already purchased it, and I was involved with the discussion on this site last year.

Thanks Jim.

Bought it from Fictionwise, alas not at that price (but with a rebate !).
I read this book half a dozen time, at least (my first personal book in english, recommended and brought from England by my english teacher at school, when I was 17 !

Not an easy one, by the way...

), and I saw the BBC series nearly as much !

But I need now to read this version, I'm sure I'll learn a lot of things !

This is one of the books that are to stay all the time on my Cybook, when I delete the already read ones.
