Sense and Sensibility
Author: Jane Austen
Hard cover in excellent condition
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen contrasts the temperaments and fortunes of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne, as they navigate love, loss, and social convention in Regency England. Elinor embodies “sense,” exercising restraint, reason, and quiet endurance, while Marianne represents “sensibility,” giving full expression to her emotions and romantic ideals. Both sisters face disappointment through unreliable suitors and the pressures of class and inheritance, learning through hardship the value of balance between feeling and judgment. Austen’s novel combines irony and moral insight to show how personal happiness depends on self-knowledge, integrity, and the reconciliation of emotion with prudence.
