Publisher Description
Sense and Sensibility is a novel by Jane Austen, and was her first published work when it appeared in 1811 under the pseudonym "A Lady". A work of romantic fiction, better known as a comedy of manners, Sense and Sensibility is set in southwest England, London and Kent between 1792 and 1797,[1] and portrays the life and loves of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. The novel follows the young ladies to their new home, a meagre cottage on a distant relative's property, where they experience love, romance and heartbreak. The philosophical resolution of the novel is ambiguous: the reader must decide whether sense and sensibility have truly merged.

Sense and Sensibility
A master piece book. I was wanting to read it for quite some time. The prose of the book has so much to offer, in conveying the thoughts and emotions of all characters. The characters have developed so eloquently from the start. One loves the the flow and the language, which is so beautifully portrayed in the story.
The book title is fully justified. A very pleasurable read.
