famous first pages of novels

Some famous first pages immediately draw readers in with their vivid descriptions. For example, the opening of 'Pride and Prejudice' with 'It is a truth universally acknowledged...' sets the tone for the whole story about social class and relationships. It gives a sense of the society's values at that time.

Character introduction on the first page can be very appealing. Take 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. The first page starts to give us a sense of Scout as a character, her voice is so distinct that it makes you want to keep reading to see how she'll grow and interact with the world around her. The first page gives us a peek into her curious and somewhat naive mind.

By creating mystery. For instance, in 'Dracula', the first pages with the strange events and the sense of an unknown, menacing presence start to draw the reader in. They make you want to find out more about what is going on.

We can often learn the tone of the novel. For example, in 'Pride and Prejudice', the first pages set a somewhat satirical and observant tone as we are introduced to the society's preoccupation with marriage and wealth. It gives us an early hint of the themes that will be explored throughout the story.
