In its marvelously perceptive portrayal of two young women in love, Sense and Sensibility is Austen's insightful representation of early 19th-century middle-class provincial life. This edition features a new Afterword. Revised reissue. Two sisters of opposing temperaments who share the pangs of tragic love provide the theme for Jane Austen's dramatically human narrative. Elinor, practical and conventional, is the perfection of sense. Marianne, emotional and sentimental, is the embodiment of sensibility. To each comes the sorrow of unhappy love.

With an Introduction by Margaret Drabble and an Afterword by Mary Balogh
