One of the best opening paragraphs is from 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen. 'It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.' This immediately sets the tone for a story centered around marriage and social status in 19th - century England.

The opening of 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald is also remarkable. 'In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since. “Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had.”' This opening gives us a sense of the narrator's character, his self - reflection, and also sets up the idea of class differences and judgment that are central to the novel.

They often start with a strong statement. For example, like in 'A Tale of Two Cities' with 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...' This kind of statement makes the reader curious about what could be both the best and the worst. It creates a sense of mystery.
