Description

Set in the early 19th century, this illustrated edition of a classic tale explores the intricate lives and emotions of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. As they navigate the complexities of love, heartbreak, and societal expectations, the juxtaposition of their differing temperaments becomes apparent. Elinor's stoic rationality often contrasts sharply with Marianne's impassioned romanticism, leading to captivating moments of tension and empathy as they confront their fates amid social limitations.

The richly illustrated pages bring to life the subtleties of Jane Austen's sharp wit and keen social commentary, enhancing the reader's experience. Each beautifully crafted image complements the narrative, deepening the connection to the characters and their struggles while offering visual insight into the Regency era. As the Dashwood sisters face various trials in their quest for love and stability, readers are invited to reflect on the enduring human experience of balancing sense and sensibility.

A slow-paced romp through a bygone era. Jane Austen's 'Sense and Sensibility' is a timeless classic that explores the themes of love, family, reason and emotion.

The two sister characters: Elinor Dashwood and Marianne Dashwood embody the tititular 'Sense' and 'Sensibility' respectively. Elinor is the voice of reason whilst Marianne is impulsive and emotional.

I understand that i am perhaps, not typically, the target demographic for a novel such as this. Therefore it should come as no surprise that, whilst I enjoyed the experience, it is not something I'm probably going to revisit any time soon.
