Discover the timeless novel that launched the career of one of history's most beloved authors. Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility is a masterpiece of wit, romance, and social observation that continues to captivate readers over two centuries later.

Follow the fortunes—and misfortunes—of the Dashwood sisters. After a sudden loss forces them from their home, Elinor and Marianne must navigate the complex and often ruthless world of Georgian society in search of security and love.

Elinor, the embodiment of "sense," is prudent, disciplined, and guards her feelings closely. Marianne, the epitome of "sensibility," is passionate, romantic, and ruled by her heart. Through their parallel journeys of heartbreak and hope, Austen crafts a brilliant and often bitingly funny critique of the restrictions placed upon women, the necessity of marriage for financial survival, and the eternal struggle between head and heart.

This exquisite softcover edition presents Austen's classic tale in a format that is both beautiful and durable. It is the perfect way to experience the novel that started it all, whether you're a lifelong Austen devotee or discovering her genius for the first time.
