Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Seth Grahame-Smith

In this story, people have already become accustomed to the fact of a zombie outbreak and developed a relevant lifestyle. Unlike the canonical zombies, the freshest of them can speak, and when they do, it is the most sophisticated Austen-type language. The unmentionables craves human flesh, spread contamination with a bite, and can be killed by beheading and burning. They move more quickly than typical zombies yet are clumsy.

In films and literature, zombies exist in the post-apocalyptic environment, and the survivors have to hide in forests and underground shelters. These days, almost every teenager knows what to do in case of a sudden zombie apocalypse, and even some serious military groupings are prepared for it. They continuously appear in books, movies and TV shows, video games, and even parades and festivals. Over the last decades, zombies have been a trendy element of pop culture.
