Opis

Set against the backdrop of early 19th-century England, this cherished story unfolds the lives of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. Facing the unexpected death of their father, they must navigate a world of financial insecurity and societal expectations, all while seeking love and happiness. Each sister's approach to life's challenges reflects their contrasting temperaments: Elinor embodies sense and restraint, while Marianne is the embodiment of emotion and spontaneity.

As they encounter a variety of suitors and societal pressures, their personal growth emerges through the trials of romance, heartbreak, and the complexities of friendship. Elinor remains steadfast and rational, grappling with her own feelings, while Marianne’s passionate nature often leads her into tumultuous romantic adventures.

Amidst these journeys, themes of love, family, and the struggle for independence shine through. Austen’s wit and keen observations of human behavior create a narrative that remains timeless, exploring the balance between the heart’s desires and the mind's judiciousness.

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.
