Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld
A Modern Retelling of Pride and Prejudice
Set in modern-day Cincinnati, this witty and contemporary retelling of a classic tale follows the lives of the Bennet sisters as they navigate love, family, and societal expectations. The story centers on Liz, a magazine writer, and her sister Jane, a yoga instructor, as they return home to help their parents during a family crisis. Amidst the chaos, they encounter the enigmatic and aloof doctor, Fitzwilliam Darcy, and his friend, Chip Bingley, a charming reality TV star. As romantic entanglements and misunderstandings unfold, the characters grapple with issues of class, prejudice, and the pursuit of happiness in a world where tradition meets modernity.
