"Mr. Bennet missed his second daughter exceedingly...was least expected" (357).
Jane Austen was very close to her father and she too, was the second female daughter born in her family. The relationship in the novel, Pride and Prejudice, between Elizabeth and her father clearly demonstrates the same bond that Austen had with her own father. Throughout the novel, it is evident how Austen cared for her father and respected his opinions. They thought the same way and admired each other. I do not believe that the relationship between Elizabeth and Mr. Bennet was included within this piece of literature by accident.
