«Sense and Sensibility» is Jane Austen's romantic novel, published by Wordsworth Editions in paperback (320 pages, in English).
After the setback suffered by sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, the former embodies prudence and reason, and the latter passion and emotion. Amid social conventions, hypocrisy and stratagems, both try to secure their future and find love. It is a comedy of manners, with irony, about the balance between head and heart.
It was Jane Austen's first novel to be published, in 1811; this Wordsworth Classics edition includes an introduction and notes by Stephen Arkin.
For readers of English classics and period novels; reading interest is from around 12 years old.
Jane Austen was an English writer known primarily for her six novels, which implicitly interpret, critique, and comment on the English landed gentry at the end of the 18th century.
