Whether you’re an avid Jane Austen fan or you’re discovering her for the first time, Sense and Sensibility will capture your attention immediately from the first chapter! With her usual clarity and precision, she establishes very early on the liabilities and natural tension between the personality types of good sense (sense) & emotionality (sensibility). Not only will you enjoy this story, but perhaps you will learn something about yourself along the way… What you will love about this special edition: Beautifully Redesigned Unique Cover Classic story with a modern style Neutral colors to complement any bookshelf, mantle or coffee table decor Original Text Full Novel with nothing missing No grammatical errors & typos associated with other editions Easier To Read Larger font, so you won’t need to squint to enjoy Larger book, so it won’t get lost in your reading stack Pictures On Every Chapter Visual aids and illustrations will enhance your experience Austen’s trademark features are on full display: insightful observation, astute characterization, and dazzling wit. The reader is plunged into a world which is socially and linguistically very different from the world of today. The main theme is undoubtedly the danger of excessive sensibility, or emotionality. There is a dual plot and dual heroines. The main characters, Elinor and Marianne, each pursue her romance according to her temperament and beliefs. They are at opposite ends of the sense and sensibility spectrum, and each has an unhappy love affair at the start of the story. They each take “the scenic route” to their final relationship destination, and you will enjoy all the stops along the way! In her own style, Austen is superb. The events of her story may not be startling, but she makes ordinary happenings as interesting, and sometimes as dramatic, as the most exciting adventure story or romance. Much of the perfection of her style comes from the infinite care and patience with which she polishes her work. Elinor, the older sister, represents qualities of "sense": reason, restraint, social responsibility, and a clear-headed concern for the welfare of others. In contrast, Marianne, her younger sister, represents qualities of "sensibility": emotion, spontaneity, impulsiveness, and rapturous devotion.
