Two sisters, contrasting approaches to society
After their father’s death, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood must leave their home and seek financial security within a society where marriage is closely tied to their prospects. Their differing temperaments—Elinor’s prudence and Marianne’s impetuosity—shape how they face disappointment, unsuitable suitors, and social rivalry. Austen’s first novel brings courtship and the constraints on women’s choices into focus through the sisters’ shared effort to build happier futures. This unabridged hardcover edition is presented as a deluxe gift volume, with foiled covers, marbled endpapers, sprayed edges, and a silk ribbon bookmark.
Based on publisher information and book metadata.
Sense and Sensibility is a delightful comedy of manners in which the sisters Elinor and Marianne represent these two qualities. Elinor's character is one of Augustan detachment, while Marianne, a fervent disciple of the Romantic Age, learns to curb her passionate nature in the interests of survival.
