«Sense and Sensibility» is the romantic novel by Jane Austen, published by Penguin Classics in paperback (368 pages, in English).
The work contrasts two ways of understanding love: the prudent sense of Elinor Dashwood and the spontaneous passion of her sister Marianne. When both lose the men they love, they question their values in a society where marriage decides almost everything. Austen ironises about the limitations of women in eighteenth-century England.
Jane Austen's first published novel; this Penguin Classics edition includes an introduction by Ros Ballaster.
For readers of classics and period romance who want an ironic look at the social conventions of eighteenth-century England.
