An Apple Books Classic edition.
Jane Austen’s first published novel is a sparkling, heartfelt tale of family, friendship, and changes of the heart.
Elinor Dashwood is the voice of reason. Her sister, Marianne, is impulsive and emotionally reactive. When their family loses its fortune, they have to trade a grand estate for a quiet cottage and step into an unpredictable new world of love, gossip, and heartbreak.
One guards her heart, the other dives in feelings-first. As secrets surface and affections are tested, both discover that reason and passion together might be the perfect combination. Sharp, funny, and romantic, Sense and Sensibility captures Austen’s keen eye for love in all its messy forms.
Quotes
From Wikiquote"I am afraid", replied Elinor, "that the pleasantness of an employment does not always evince its propriety."
People always live forever when there is an annuity to be paid them.
