I've seen the Kiara Knightley movie version of P&P and liked it. I 
would've been better off starting there, I take it?

Tiffany:

Pride & Prejudice is easily one Austen's best books, but Emma is pretty 
good as well.  Some books don't translate too well to movies because 
Henry James's best novel, The Portrait of a Lady was a bomb at the box 
office, even with a faithful adaption of the book.
