“The garden in which stands my humble abode, is separated only by a lane from Rosings Park, her ladyship’s residence” (45). Austen frequently describes scenes in her novel through dialogue. Her style of often using dialogue instead of narrating gives her work a unique touch. In this scenario, through Mr. Collins character, the author describes later scenes--where certain truths become revealed and the story changes. It is intriguing how important the dialogue becomes in setting the scene for the entire novel.
